An official transcript details the entire permanent academic record of a student while attending a high school/secondary school, college and/or university. Official transcripts must be sent directly from the issuing institution to CUNY/UAPC in a sealed, university-issued envelope. Also, official transcripts must include the following:

  • Dates of enrollment, courses taken, and marks, grades, or ratings in each subject.
  • Institutional grading scale or other standard(s) of evaluation.
  • Original signature of a school official and an original school seal. Accepted signatures include: the Registrar, Dean, Principal, Controller of Examinations, Ministry of Education, or another appropriate school official/office.
  • Recent issue date(s)

CUNY/UAPC cannot accept the following as official transcripts:

  • Documents certified by the notary public, translator, or commissioner of oaths.
  • Photocopies or other duplications of a transcript such as notarized copies, faxed, or scanned documents.

Please note: Documents will not be returned to the sender. Therefore, we ask that you do not send any personal document(s) that cannot be replaced unless clearly asked to do so by CUNY/UAPC.
