Final Transcripts

An official final transcript is required within 30 days of your high school graduation. Your final transcript will be reviewed by the Admissions Committee to verify continued academic success after the time of your acceptance to Michigan Tech. A significant decline in academic performance during your senior year may affect your enrollment status and, at the University's discretion, result in a revocation of your admission and any financial assistance awarded.

To be considered official, a transcript must be sent directly to Michigan Tech by the institution issuing the transcript, or from a transcript service such as Parchment. Transcripts stamped "issued to student" or those hand delivered, even if in a sealed envelope, are not acceptable.

High school seniors: Request your final transcript through Parchment or contact your high school upon graduation and ask them to send us your official transcript showing your final grades and graduation date.
Transfer students: When you have completed all of your coursework at your previous institution(s), contact the registrar's office at each institution to request that an official transcript with final grades be sent to MTU.
