  5. Transcripts from Previously Attended Undergraduate and Graduate Level Institutions

    Applicants to our Master of Professional Studies programs must have a conferred Bachelor's degree or be enrolled in the final semester of their Bachelor's degree prior to submitting their application for review. Applicants enrolled in their final semester must provide a transcript or course-by-course evaluation that lists the courses in progress for their final term and it must state an expected graduation month and year in order to be considered for admission.

    Applicants who attended a U.S. institution must submit (official or unofficial) transcripts from:

    • all undergraduate institutions where 16 or more credits were earned
    • all graduate institutions where any credit was earned

    Applicants who attended an international institution must submit:

    • an official course-by-course evaluation of any undergraduate and/or graduate level coursework from SpanTran/TEC, WES, or ECE

    In order to ensure that U.S. accreditation standards, degree, course, and credit equivalencies are met, transcripts from higher education institutions outside the U.S. must be evaluated by a recognized foreign educational credential evaluator from the list below:

    When necessary, please indicate scsadmissions@georgetown.edu as the intended recipient of the official course-by-course evaluation.

    The Office of Admissions can request a transcript from a study abroad program or an official course-by-course evaluation if deemed necessary during the review of an admissions application. In certain cases, students who have participated in a formal study abroad program through their home institution may not need to submit a separate transcript from their visiting school. Please contact the Office of Admissions for more information regarding your particular circumstances.

    If an applicant has been admitted and would like to enroll, an official transcript or course-by-course evaluation is required from every institution(s) where an applicant has earned a bachelor’s degree or taken any graduate-level coursework. The official transcript(s) and/or course-by-course evaluation must show proof of degree conferral and be sent to the Georgetown SCS Office of Admissions prior to the start of the term to which an applicant was admitted.

    Preferred Method - Electronic (Select One Method):

    1. Send it through an electronic service - National Student Clearinghouse or Parchment, if available.
    2. Have your institution(s)'s Registrar email us your official transcript(s) to our Admissions Office at: scsadmissions@georgetown.edu

    If your institution(s) only offers hard copy transcripts, then by mail:

    Georgetown University, School of Continuing Studies
    Attn: Admissions Office
    640 Massachusetts Ave NW
    Washington, DC 20001

    If your transcript is sent to another school at Georgetown University by mistake, you will need to reorder the transcript and have it sent to the School of Continuing Studies.

    All US institutions must be accredited through one of the bodies officially recognized by the US Department of Education.

    Please contact the Office of Admissions at scsadmissions@georgetown.edu should you have any specific questions regarding your transcripts or application.
