Transcript:
Request official transcript(s) from institutions you’ve attended, including Rutgers. Your institution(s) should send original, official transcripts, showing your degree awarded, to the appropriate graduate admissions office. If your institution is a sending member of Parchment, eScrip-Safe, or National Student Clearinghouse, Rutgers will be able to receive your official transcripts electronically. We also accept electronic transcripts from India sent via TrueCopy Credentials. View address information for Graduate and Professional Admissions offices(http://gradstudy.rutgers.edu/about/contact-us).
If the official copy of your transcript will be delayed past the program deadline, consider uploading an unofficial, scanned copy of your transcripts.
