Transcript: non-credit course

[steeno]

I took a non-credit language class at a community college for fun last year that was listed under the "community education" department at the school. It was a night course geared toward adults already with careers, not for students looking for credits.

The course doesn't show up on my transcript for some reason, should I bother listing the class on AMCAS and sending them the transcript? I'm pretty sure I'd be sending them a blank transcript.

I'd call the CC and make sure that you don't have a transcript with them. If no, then don't worry about it. If yes and you don't list it, it could cost you a delayed AMCAS application which is never good.

If the CC lists you as having matriculated there, and if they won't give you a meaningful transcript, you may need to get a letter from them stating that no grade was earned.

One (1) official transcript is required from each U.S., U.S. Territorial, or Canadian post-secondary institution at which you have attempted coursework, regardless of whether credit was earned.

If No Official Transcript is Available
If the institution only provides a certificate of completion or no official transcript is available, the registrar of the institution must send AMCAS an official letter verifying that no official transcript is available.

Thanks to both. I'll make sure to first check the guide before posting next time!
