Do international universities require transcripts from every institution attended?

Yes, most international universities do require transcripts from every institution you have attended as part of the application process. This is an important part of their admission requirements because they want to review your complete academic history.

Here’s what you need to know:

1. Undergraduate Applicants

- If you have attended multiple schools (like junior college, diploma, or pre-university courses), you will need to submit transcripts from each one.
- This includes your 10th and 12th standard mark sheets if you are applying from India.

2. Postgraduate Applicants

- You must provide transcripts from your undergraduate degree (all years/semesters).
- If you have completed any postgraduate studies, diploma, or additional courses, those transcripts are also required.
- If you have done a transfer or attended more than one university/college, you must submit transcripts from each institution.

3. Transfer Students

- If you are applying as a transfer student, you must submit transcripts from your current/previous university along with your earlier academic records.

4. Official vs. Unofficial

- Most universities initially accept scanned copies (unofficial) for application review.
- Once admitted, they will require official transcripts sent directly from each institution (either by post or electronically).

5. Medium of Instruction

- If your transcripts are not in English, you will need to provide a certified English translation along with the original document.

6. Why is this important?

- Submitting all transcripts ensures that the university has a complete picture of your academic background.
- Failure to disclose or submit all transcripts can result in your application being rejected or your admission being revoked.
