Why You Need To Have Your Transcript Handy

First of all, What is transcript?

An academic transcript is a certified record of a student (or a graduate) throughout a course of study, showing the individual's full admission history in a given institution including all courses attempted, grades earned and, in the case of a graduate, awards conferred.

This is always required, especially, from those going for higher learning like MSC/MEng/PHD program and the likes.

The reason why you should have this document handy is that transcript may take time to process and one may lose a life-time opportunity for not being able to meet up with the deadline.

I have seen many lose such opportunities and it is not a beautiful sight to behold.

To beat this, you should apply for your transcript, choosing a random institution as destination, so you will be able to pick your Student's Copy.

So, having a student's copy handy, in majority of the cases, you can use it to apply for admission.

Again, by the time the institution will require your official transcript to be sent to them by your former institution, it will almost always come out easier with less delay.
