For those universities that require official transcript mailed to them during application, are we allowed to mail it ourselves if we have an official copy?

I filled an online application for an undergraduate study in Alcorn state university and I'm yet to get a mail from them as regards all that's needed. I mailed the international admission and still no response yet. I would be glad if there's anyone here in the school or that knows how to get all necessary documents sent to them.....

Please reply if You have an idea... Thanks

Yes. So far its in an official and untampered envelope with your school stamp or seal. Use your school address as the sender address at the courier service. You can put your own phone number there in case.

My visa transcript
VISA DENIED AT LAGOS ON 3/07/2018

My appointment was fixed to be 7:00am. As he reached my turn I gathered confidence.

Me: Good mrng
Vo: Good mrng, pass me ur passport & i-20

Vo: what course
Me: Computer science

Vo: why this course
Me: (Na so I start my talk ooo) In our current world, it almost impossible to imagine that someone can live without computer as computers are now part of our everyday life. I also discovered that Nigeria is now shifting her focus gradually from oil to technology so this means excellent job prospect for me upon graduation.
I believe with a degree in computer science, I will be better equipped with various skills I need to express my creativity as my strength & motivation lies in the field of networking & programming. Through my work I ll make a positive change in Nigeria's IT sector (He took time to allow me talk but he wasn't looking my direction, he was facing the computer & was typing)

Vo: Why this school?
Me: The computer science program at SMSU is structured in a way that it aligns with my career goal as I will opportuned to learn multiple programming language & different software package.
The school offer more than just classroom teaching, the school also offer me an opportunity to learn with current technology through the Schwann's IT research center which has a networked raspberry pi device running on Ubuntu Linux operating system and they have several micro computer laboratories running on windows & Macintosh operating system.
SMSU has one of the best student to faculty ratio which will aid interaction with my professors & pears. This means I ll have the opportunity of getting good one on one mentoring with my instructors. So it's good choice for me. (He didn't look my direction, he only nod his head as if he heard me)

Vo: Have u travelled outside your country?
Me: I have gotten any reason to travel outside Nigeria until now

Vo: what are your plans after graduation
Me: As soon as i graduate, I will return to Nigeria and put my newly learnt skills into practice by taking up a job as a software engineer in one of Nigeria's telecommunication companies

Vo: Are you married, do u have kid
Me: Answered No for the both

Vo: Who will be sponsoring your education?
Me: My dad

Vo: what does he do?
Me: He is a civil engineer & he has a construction company

Typed for some minutes & later brought out the blue paper & said you are not qualified at this time reasons are stated in the in the paper.

Observation:
I feel I did my best giving him good answers I outlined. He didn't look at me all through the interview he only pretended as if he was listening. I use hand demonstration & I was audible enough even though I don't have a foreign tone accent. The only thing I enjoyed was that he gave me time to express myself as I Neva expected he would be patient to listen to those answers.
All since I got there, it was only a two lady that was granted visa. One had a brain syndrome (like an slowpoke), so she was considered, while the other was a student. Every other person was receiving blue till I left.
There was a particular lady that was also denied but d Lady no gree leave the consular. She said it was her second time & they are telling her not qualified say dem no consider the stress & money. The consular just dey tell her to apply again. She argued with the woman for more than 5mins with everything them no changed their mind ooo. God ll help ooo
