Transcript: This is a document obtained from your academic institution. It will be a complete academic record with the institution’s name, grading scheme, your name, names and numbers of courses, credits, and the grades you have received. This document may be: - A copy or student copy of an official transcript issued by the university or college - A transcript obtained from a self-serve university/college web system Make sure that all information has been scanned and is legible. If not on the transcript, the grading scale must also be provided (usually found on the reverse). Transcripts in languages other than English or French must be accompanied by a certified translation. Do not upload your syllabus, course schedule, or any other documents with your transcripts. If the transcript does not clearly indicate that you have completed your studies and that a degree has been conferred, you must also upload a copy of your degree certificate (diploma) as part of the unofficial transcript file. Example 1: Your transcript (in English or French) has four pages of courses and grades with a grading scale printed on the back of each page. Please upload and submit a five-page document: the four pages of course info + the grading scale, in that order, all in ONE document. Example 2: Your transcript (in a language other than English or French) has four pages of courses and grades plus a one-page grading scale. The certified English translation of the transcript has four pages of courses and grades plus one page for the grading scale. Please upload and submit a ten-page document: five pages for the English translation (course info + grading scale) + five pages for the original language transcript, in that order, all in ONE document.
