Transcript:
Uncertified copies or provisional versions of transcripts should be uploaded to your self-service account. Originals or certified copies should be sent to the Graduate Admissions Office(http://www.graduate.study.cam.ac.uk/other-ways-contact-us).Your official transcript may be sent to us electronically only if your institution has, or can use, a recognised secure electronic transcript system (eg Digitary or HEAR/GradIntel). You will need to contact your institution to enquire whether they offer this facility. These systems work by generating a web address for your electronic transcript on a trusted website, or a secure access token, which either you or your institution can notify us of, by sending a message via the system to bgstranscripts@admin.cam.ac.uk.
Please arrange for this to be done after you have submitted your application, so that your electronic transcript can be associated with your other documents.
Please note that we cannot accept transcripts that are attached to emails sent directly to us.
