Official Transcripts<\/b><\/h4>\n

All students, regardless of degree-seeking status, must submit official transcripts documenting a conferred bachelor\u2019s degree or higher from an appropriately accredited institution. Students who do not submit official transcripts at the time of application will have a transcript hold placed on their account, which restricts access to final grades, unofficial transcripts, and the ability to receive or send an official transcript.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Applicants may submit unofficial transcripts to the registrar\u2019s office for determining admissibility; however, any offer of acceptance is conditional pending receipt of official transcripts.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Art of Education University considers a transcript official when sent directly from the issuing institution. Students may send official transcripts through the following methods:<\/span><\/p>\n

  1. Parchment Exchange<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n
  2. Through other electronic services providers to the following email address: <\/span>transcripts@theartofeducation.edu<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n
