Transcript Types

Official Transcripts

An official transcript is a transcript received by the Snow College Articulation Office in one of the following ways:

  1. Paper transcripts can be mailed directly from the college or university to:
    Snow College
    Registration Office
    150 E College Ave.
    Ephraim, UT 84627
  2. Paper transcripts can also be delivered in person to the Transfer Articulation Specialist provided they are unopened, in the original envelope and bearing an official seal from the transfer institution. Courses must appear on an official transcript from the sending institution. Transcripts issued to the student will not be accepted.
  3. Electronic transcripts are considered official if they are sent through a secure transcript exchange company (such as National Student Clearinghouse or Parchment) or to registrar@snow.edu as a secured/certified official electronic transcript. (Not as a pdf attachment.)

Unofficial Transcripts

Transcripts received by Snow College through fax, regular email, or outside of a sealed envelope are considered unofficial and will not be accepted for the purpose of admission or posting of credit.

In-State Transcripts

Official transcripts received from institutions that are among the Utah System of Higher Education (USHE) are more easily evaluated. General Education (GE) degrees and certificates received at any USHE school are honored by all other USHE schools. In addition, GE credit granted by a USHE school is accepted by all other USHE schools.

Out-of-State Transcripts

Most out-of-state transcripts will require an evaluation as the courses may not be in the Snow College database. Snow College does not automatically accept GE credit granted by an out-of-state school because GE course requirements and expected outcomes vary from state to state. Students may be asked to provide a "Master Course Content Syllabus with Outcomes" for review by individual departments.

International Transcripts

  • International transcripts must be evaluated by an approved foreign credential evaluation company. Snow College's preferred evaluation company is TEC. If you have already had your international transcript evaluated by a foreign credential company, please contact the Registrar's Office at (435) 283-7143. Only courses that are equivalent to Snow College's general education courses and direct equivalencies to a student's specific program of choice will be accepted toward a degree. Granting elective credit may be handled on a case-by-case basis. Visit https://evalcompany.com/request-copy/ to start your evaluation.
