Transcripts

The preferred method of submitting transcripts is to personally request your previous school(s) send them directly to UC to be considered official.

To see if your transcripts can be ordered electronically, go to the links below and search for your previous school(s):

If your past school(s) isn’t listed on either site, please contact your past schools directly.

Please mail sealed, unopened, official transcripts to:

University of Cincinnati
Office of Admissions – Undergraduate Admissions
PO Box 210091
Cincinnati, Ohio 45221-0091

Current UC students who transfer into the BTAS program do not need to submit transcripts.

Transfer Course Credit

The only considerations of associate or bachelor degree transfer work are in the case of general education courses. Associate degree and bachelor degree transfer coursework must be reviewed to ensure they meet UC minimums for a bachelors degree. If they do not, a general education course must be taken in the place of AIS elective(s).
