COVID-19 Transcript Hardships
Note that the COVID-19 Transcript Hardships process will no longer be available starting on September 15, 2020. You must upload your transcripts in the Colleges Attended section.
Requesting an Exception
If you are not able to have official transcripts sent from each college or university attended, select No. Then, indicate if you already visited each institution's website for COVID-19 guidance and attempted to contact each institution to request official transcripts. If you haven't attempted this yet, you must visit your institution's website to review their COVID-19 guidance. Most institutions have staff working remotely to fulfill official transcript requests. If no guidance is available, contact them via email as they may be unable to respond to phone inquiries. You must attempt to contact each institution electronically prior to requesting an exception.
Once you performed the steps above, select Yes and enter each college or university that you need an exception for. Then, indicate your agreement with the Transcript Exception Certification statement and click Save and Continue.
Next, go to the Documents section of the application and upload the unofficial versions of your transcripts.
