You must submit official transcripts for any school or institution attended to help complete your application to receive an admissions decision. Please check the for details on your specific transcripts requested.

If you attended multiple institutions, be sure to submit separate official transcripts from each of them. 

Final Enrollment at USF

Before enrolling at USF, you must submit your final official transcripts from your last institution. Failure to do so before your first day of classes may result in a hold on your student account, potentially affecting financial aid and future registration. Your admission offer is contingent on receiving and evaluating your transcript.

Incoming students should submit final transcripts electronically, using the University of South 91社区's school code 001537. Follow the outlined options below for submission based on your school type.

Important notes for transcript submission:

  • Transcripts must be sent directly to USF from your school.
  • Provide official final transcripts from all post-secondary institutions attended.
  • Allow 4-6 weeks for the USF Office of Admissions to process your transcript.
  • Do NOT fax your transcripts to USF.
