What does Transcript mean....?
 

I am filling in our PR application forms and have found this....

"Transcripts: original transcripts of all degrees must be submitted in university sealed envelopes"

What does this mean?

Re: What does Transcript mean....?
 

Means a breakdown of what modules/exams you did and what score you got....

You probably had one at the time but have long since forgotten about it. Your university will be able to provide one - but make sure you request that it is sealed (ask for two if you want to look at one yourself).

Some people don't bother sending sealed ones and have gotten away with it....

My goodness I have read the what to send form over and over again and never noticed this...POOOOOOOOOO. I have to have my papers in my 2nd March and that is looking highly unlikely now. Am I allowed to ask for an extension?

That's a month from now. Get on the phone and tell your Uni it's urgent.

Re: What does Transcript mean....?
 

I know...I cannot believe I missed this bit...again I shall repeat...POOOOOOO

Re: What does Transcript mean....?
 

Wow, you have to supply that now? I'm sure we didn't when we applied.

Re: What does Transcript mean....?
 

I am sure I have noticed it each time I read the "what you need" form but for some unknown reason decided it didn't apply to us...quite why I decided this I have no idea!:blink:

This is one time when I will admit to a blonde moment.

Didn't know what transcripts were. Didn't know this site. Sent in notarised copies of degree certificates. No problems at all.

(have since had to get transcripts for teaching registration - they turned it round really quickly, had them via post to canada in a few days).

Re: What does Transcript mean....?
 

Oh really? If I send in our application with a couple of things "to follow" what will they do? Just throw it all in the bin, or allow me to proceed?

Re: What does Transcript mean....?
 

I'm really not sure. I certainly didn't have any problem with mine at all - they didn't mention it or ask for any clarification despite having only copies of degree certs (not even in an envelope!). However, whether they would do that for another application I don't know - might just depend on the person reading your application. We already had our PNP as well, so don't know if that affected it at all or the fact that OH was our principal applicant.

Try phoning your university records office in the morning, they are used to these requests. If you need a contact at Stirling or Aberdeen University, I can give you e-mails and phone numbers!

Re: What does Transcript mean....?
 

i would just send your degree certificate and play dumb, if they want to see a transcript, you'll get more time to provide it....

Re: What does Transcript mean....?
 

Yeah I think I will work to that plan...at least hopefully by the time they ask for them, I will have my hands on them!

Re: What does Transcript mean....?
 

FWIW I only sent copies of the degree certificates. But that was 35 years ago, so don't count on the rules being the same now. :rofl:

Re: What does Transcript mean....?
 

Wonder what would happen if you asked for a transcript now :eek:

Re: What does Transcript mean....?
 

Thing is the University only guarantees transcripts for the last 7 years...and we are requesting one from 10 years ago, so they probably don't have it anyway!
