Yes, your transcript is an important piece of your MScFE application journey because it is proof that you have met the minimum academic requirement for admission (i.e. a bachelor's degree). Here's what you need to know:

  • Only submit a transcript for your highest previously earned degree. For example, if you have completed a bachelor's degree and a master's degree, you will only need to submit a transcript for your master's degree;

  • At the time of your application, an unofficial scanned copy of your transcript is sufficient as long as it shows the type of degree, your graduation date, the number of credits earned, and your cumulative GPA (final grade);

  • Upon acceptance into the Program, you are required to submit an official transcript before the end of your second course. Official transcripts must be sent directly from your former college or university to WQU via postal mail or by email. Official Transcripts may be emailed to the Admissions Office at admissions@wqu.edu. Official transcripts that are not in English will need to be evaluated by a member of NACES and submitted to the University for review to determine whether the degree is considered equivalent to a bachelor's degree in the United States.
