How can transcripts be sent?

Institutions vary how they send official transcripts. We do accept electronic transcripts through verified servers (i.e. 国家票据交换所,eScript,羊皮纸,凭证解决方案,新泽西转移). Transcripts received from a student will not be considered as official, 因此,除非有其他程序可以代表学生发送成绩单,否则他们需要从以前的机构的注册办公室申请. We do not request transcripts on a student’s behalf, and they are not automatically sent once the courses conclude.

Official transcripts may be sent electronically to msuadm@warocolor.com or via mail to:

Office of Undergraduate Admissions
Montclair State University
1 Normal Avenue
Montclair, NJ 07043

When are credits posted?

一旦提交存款,学分将被记入学生的学位审核. 我们鼓励学生尽快将他们的正式成绩单和经过验证的考试成绩发送到本科招生办公室,以便在创建第一年的时间表时可以考虑这些学分.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What credits will you accept from another institution?

A:我们可以从认证的两年制学校获得最多60个学分,从认证的四年制学校获得最多88个学分. 除非获得副学士学位,否则我们不会为任何补习课程或低于C-的课程授予学分. The Associates of Applied Science (AAS) is not eligible for this rule. Only courses with a grade of C- or above will be awarded. 请注意,带来重要的学分可能与更高的学生班级水平有关, but still not waive degree audit requirements. 

问:你是否可以接受大学先修课程(AP)或CLEP考试的最高学分?

答:大学先修课程或CLEP考试没有最高学分限制. The minimum score will need to be met in order for credit to be awarded. 

Q: How will my credits affect my first-year schedule?

答:在制定你的时间表时,你在学位审核上公布的课程将被考虑在内. We do not want you to retake any courses, so the earlier you send your transcript or exam reports the better! 它使您更容易获得基于任何合格的先前完成的课程创建的最准确的时间表. 确保完成你的第一年调查问卷,并表明你已经完成了双注册课程. 

Q: Where do I send my official transcript?

A:你将把你的成绩单送到本科招生办公室. We do accept transcripts electronically via transcript servers. 学生直接发送的成绩单将不被视为正式副本. Our address is: 1 Normal Avenue Montclair, NJ 07043.

Q: My dual enrollment course is posted on my high school transcript. Do I still need to send you a college transcript?

A: We cannot award credit from a high school transcript. 你需要向你获得学分的机构的注册办公室申请一份正式成绩单,除非有其他程序可以代表你发送成绩单. 

问:我在高中上过课,想把它们应用到我在密歇根州立大学的课程中. 如果我最初申请的时候没有发送,我还能发送吗?

A: Yes! 如果你在高中时上过课,但申请时没有提交成绩单, we will still review your courses for posting. 我们鼓励您在存款后尽快寄给我们,以便您可以获得最准确的第一年时间表.

Q: I took Advanced Placement level classes while in high school. Can I get credit for them?

A: If no exam has been taken, no credit will be awarded. In order to be awarded Advanced Placement credit, 您需要向我们发送一份经过验证的考试成绩报告.

A: Please see the chart below for each set of exams. 这些对等关系须经部门检讨及随时更改. 

Q: If I took credits, but they do not waive any general education or major courses, will I still get credit for them?

Q: I earned an associate’s degree while in high school. Will you take all of my credits? What classes will be waived?

A: We can accept a maximum amount of 60 credits from a two year school. 在正式成绩单上公布学位后,我们接受D及以上的成绩. If you have earned an AA, AS, or AFA degree, 我们将免除你所有的通识教育要求,除了你的新生研讨会课程. If you have earned an AAS degree, 我们将放弃以前完成的课程所满足的任何要求. Any remaining general education requirements will need to be completed. 

Q: I would like to take a course, but don’t know what will transfer over? What resources can I use to help me determine what I should take?

A:如果你想在新泽西的社区大学上课,你可以使用 NJ Transfer as a resource to see how courses will transfer to our institution. If you are not attending a NJ community college, 请随时通过电子邮件向我们的办公室发送您想要学习的任何课程! Additionally, please review the general education courses that are required for each type of degree.

问:我通过参加的课程获得了学分,但没有成绩单. How can I go about getting the credits reviewed?
