Submit Official Transcripts (Admitted Students)

If you receive an offer of admission and confirm your intent to enroll, you will be required to submit your official transcript(s) to Graduate Admissions. Official transcripts must match the unofficial ones that were submitted with your application. Electronic official transcripts are accepted as long as they are sent directly from the issuing institution. Electronic transcripts should be sent to gradprocessing@colorado.edu. However, please do not have these sent until a ´Ú¾±²Ô²¹±ôÌýofficial transcript is available - including all graded coursework and degree with graduation date.

Copies of transcripts mailed in unsealed envelopes and sent directly by applicants are NOT official transcripts.

Note: All academic documents received by the Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØ become the property of the university. The university scans all transcripts into an electronic application file and destroys the paper copy shortly after that. We are unable to return any original or official transcripts to the student.
