Transcripts

Submitting your transcripts

You must meet with your JAMP Faculty Director to arrange a sealed official transcript, accompanied by a JAMP Transcript Request Form, be submitted to the JAMP office.

• Only one transcript is required from every accredited U.S., U.S. Territorial or Canadian college attended.
• Do not have any transcripts delivered to JAMP until you have completed the [Colleges Attended] section of your application.
• An official transcript is only necessary from your home insitution. Transcripts from any additional institution previously or currently enrolled in or that has granted college credit can be unofficial. 
• Transcripts must be submitted from each school attended even if:
  • Coursework appears as transfer credit on another school’s transcript
  • Coursework does not count toward a degree
  • Coursework was taken while attending high school

Transcript Request Form

While JAMP will accept transcripts that are not attached to a JAMP Transcript Request Form, JAMP is not responsible for transcripts that cannot be matched to your application due to the absence of a JAMP Transcript Request Form. You are strongly encouraged to utilize these forms.

1. Fill out the Transcript Request Form from the link or from the [Colleges Attended] section of the application.
2. Submit to the registrar’s office of every accredited U.S. and Canadian college/university you have attended.
   • If submitting an electronic transcript, most electronic transcript services give you the option to add attachments to your order. You can upload the Transcript Request Form as an attachment. 
3. Transcripts that are not accompanied by the Transcript Request Form can result in a delay in processing the document.
