Official transcripts are required from ALL recognized, post-secondary institutions attended, no matter whether a degree has been awarded or not. Transcripts must be received in envelopes that have been sealed and endorsed (stamped across the back flap) by the main Records Office of the issuing institution. In cases where the transcript does / will not clearly state that a degree has been conferred, and when it was awarded, an official degree certificate (attested or certified copy) is required to accompany the transcript. If the transcript is issued in a language other than English (and is not from a Canadian institution) the applicant must arrange for the submission of official literal translations of all records. The original language documents and the English translations must arrive together in an envelope that has been sealed and endorsed (stamped across the back flap) by the issuing institutions. All academic documents must arrive directly from the main records office (e.g., the Registrar, Controller of Examinations, Archives, etc.) of the issuing institution in order to be considered "official."Other Supporting Documentation
