Degree Works Training Guide

NEW TRANSCRIPT POLICY

The School of Graduate Studies requires every degree seeking applicant to submit an official transcript from the institution at which the highest degree was earned. Applicants must submit unofficial transcript(s) from all other institutions attended. Applicants who wish to seek transfer credit for graduate coursework, must submit an official transcript from the institution where that work was completed. Coursework from one institution reported as transfer credit on another school's transcript constitutes neither an official nor an unofficial transcript. USI transcripts do not need to be requested. Electronic submission of transcripts is preferred and will expedite the review of applications.

Official Transcript

An official transcript is one that has been sent directly to the School of Graduate Studies by the institution issuing it. The applicant must request that it be sent to the School of Graduate Studies.

Unofficial Transcript

An unofficial transcript is one that has been issued to the applicant, who then submits it to the School of Graduate Studies.

International transcripts

Official International course-by-course evaluated transcripts must be sent from a National Association of Credential Evaluation Services (NACES) member to the School of Graduate Studies by email (Graduate.Studies@usi.edu).

Submission of Transcripts

Official transcripts must be sent from the previous university to the School of Graduate Studies by email (Graduate.Studies@usi.edu).

Universities that are unable to send transcripts electronically can mail sealed transcripts to:
