Your program may require official transcripts in order to review your application. However, many programs can review your application with unofficial transcripts and will request official transcripts only if you are admitted. You can upload your unofficial transcripts by logging into your application portal.

You can upload PDF, Word, and scanned images of transcripts using common image formats like JPEG and PNG with a resolution of at least 200 dpi. Just keep in mind that each of your materials should be less than 4 MB (megabytes) in size. You should only upload items listed on your application checklist. You can update any of your existing uploads by removing and re-uploading the credential.
Submit your application early enough before your program’s deadline to ensure your recommendations arrive in time. You should also submit supporting materials prior to your program’s application deadline.
In addition to the basic application requirements, there may be specific forms that are required by your program or our office.
