International Transcripts

Successful applicants will have received a baccalaureate degree from a college or university of recognized standing. For students with foreign credentials, an equivalent international degree is required. Please see the International Degree Equivalency page for degrees, by country, accepted by the Graduate School.

Requirements for international credentials:

  • All transcripts, diplomas or academic records must be official documents issued by the college or university and provided in the original language. If not issued by the college or university as original documents, they should be notarized, full-sized photocopies. A certified English translation must accompany the transcript or diploma if the original language is not English.
  • Transcripts should include grades received in each subject each year, and the number of weeks and hours per week that each subject was studied.
  • Courses must be described in detail. The general subject name (e.g., "mathematics") is not sufficient; the particular subject (e.g., "differential equations," "algebraic topology") must be identified.
  • Transcripts should be scanned and uploaded at the time of application. Admitted applicants will be required to send an official paper transcript prior to registration.
