Sending Official Records — Transfer Students

Unless otherwise stated in your Admission Contract (which you can view on the MyApplication Status website), you must send us official transcripts for your college coursework by the following dates:

Update regarding 2024 AP scores: students will not be penalized for the delay in receiving official scores from College Board. We are aware of the release dates and students do not need to notify us via emails/phone calls.

Please report changes to us if any names on previous records differ from the names you provided on your application form.

If we do not receive your official transcripts and/or test scores by the due date, a hold will be placed on your record. This will prevent you from enrolling in classes and receiving services from the university.

* Students from institutions ending in late June (e.g., De Anza/Foothill) should submit transcript(s) as soon as all grades are posted.

Electronically

Electronic transcripts are our preferred method of submission and are accepted from the following vendors:

• Credentials, Inc. - TranscriptsNetwork, use this service, please do not send through email
• E-Scrip
• National Student Clearinghouse
• Naviance
• Parchment
• Scoir
• Certree - approved only for Bakersfield, Cerro Coso and Porterville

We must receive your transcript directly from the transcript vendor. Make sure to select UCLA Undergraduate Admission if required by the vendor.

We won’t accept transcripts sent through email as official. If your school doesn’t utilize these vendors, you’ll need to submit official paper copies of your documents.

Please note: Once the transcript is downloaded by our office, processing time is still required. Please allow up to 10 business days for MyUCLA to be updated.

Due to volume, we cannot respond to emails requesting updates regarding transcripts/documents processing. You must check MyUCLA .

By Mail

If your school is unable to send electronic transcripts via the approved vendors listed above, paper transcripts can be mailed to:

UCLA Undergraduate Admission
Attn: Transcripts
1147 Murphy Hall, Box 951436
Los Angeles, CA 90095-1436

Note: Paper documents will only be considered official if they are sent in a sealed school envelope with a stamp or signature on the flap of the envelope.

For continuing students, during summer, please allow 3-4 weeks for transcript processing and then check MyUCLA.
