Final Official Transcripts - Delivery Methods

Electronic Transcripts

If you are submitting official documents electronically, they must be requested with enough time to ensure they are received on or before the deadline. CSUSB - CEGE recommends submitting requests for electronic documents at least ten business days before a listed deadline. 

Electronic requests are not immediate and they require processing time from the institution you attended, so check with your institution to plan accordingly. CSUSB - CEGE must receive all official transcripts on or before the deadline date listed on the program website in order to be considered on time. Failure to submit documents will result in the cancellation of the student's application for admission.

Documents sent via email to CSUSB will not be considered official. Only electronic transcripts sent directly from the issuing institution through an approved and secure 3rd party will be accepted as official. 

Official Paper Final Transcripts - Mail 

Transcripts that have been printed by the issuing institution must arrive at CSUSB sealed in the original envelope in order to be considered official. Any document received without a seal will automatically be considered unofficial.
