Transcript Requirements

Academic transcripts, which provide a complete history of your education, play an important role in the graduate admission process.  

 

  • At the time of application, you may submit copies of official transcripts through the application portal. (If you are taking classes or completing a degree during the application process, this transcript will not be 鈥渇inal鈥 because it will show in-progress courses and that a degree has not yet been awarded.)
  • Upon admission, you must request that official transcripts be sent to us directly from the institution attended. The Graduate School must receive required official transcripts from each institution before the start of your first semester of graduate study.
  • Official transcripts from the institution attended are required for the following:
    • all institutions where any degree was awarded
    • all institutions where any graduate coursework was attempted 
  • Official transcripts cannot be older than one year and must be current and/or in-progress.
  • The Graduate School reserves the right to require official transcripts for all institutions attended.
  • International 亚洲自慰视频s receiving an I-20 must have official transcripts and proof of degree(s) sent from each institution before an I-20 will be issued or transferred.   
     

Using the application portal 

To expedite the evaluation process, you may upload copies of official transcripts to the application portal. Please review our guidelines for uploading your transcripts. We cannot accept transcripts emailed to us by applicants.  

If you are admitted using transcripts uploaded to the application portal, we will need to receive an official transcript from each institution in order to verify your academic credentials.  

Submitting your official transcripts 

Applicants are encouraged to arrange for official transcripts to be sent to the Graduate School as soon as possible, and even before admission. Official transcripts can arrive at the Graduate School in the following ways. 

Official transcripts must arrive in the original sealed envelope that shows they were clearly issued by the originating institution, with an institutional stamp or signature on the closed envelope flap.  

Our mailing address is:  

UL Lafayette Graduate School  
Martin Hall Suite 332  
PO Box 43716  
Lafayette, LA 70504-3716 

If your institution uses Parchment or National 亚洲自慰视频 Clearinghouse, please direct the service to send official transcripts electronically to gradschool@louisiana.edu

If you have previously attended UL Lafayette (as an undergraduate or graduate 亚洲自慰视频), you do not need to provide an official transcript from UL Lafayette. The Graduate School will request one on your behalf. Please note that, if you have attended other universities, we will need new copies of transcripts from these institutions. 

All international official transcripts submitted to the Graduate School must be submitted in the institution鈥檚 native language and include a diploma/degree certificate. 

Individual mark sheets are required for certain countries (including, but not limited to: India, Nepal, and Bangladesh) and must include all repeated and failing grades. If only copies of individual mark sheets are available, the Registrar or Controller of Examiners must officially attest the copy, and the document must be sent to us in a sealed envelope. 

A certified, literal/exact English translation is required for any documents not originally issued in English. 

If your transcript does not specifically state that a degree has been conferred, you also must submit an official (or attested) diploma showing conferral of a degree. A copy from the Registrar or Controller of Examiners must be received by our office in a sealed envelope. Please note that transcripts must be attested by the institution that is conferring your degree. 

If official transcripts are not received or are inconsistent with those provided during the application process, admission will be rescinded.   

Please note that transcript documents submitted to the Graduate School become the property of the 亚洲自慰视频 and cannot be returned or released.
