Unofficial Transcript vs Official Transcript

Hey guys,

I was filling out the coursework section and I took 2 classes and 1 class from two different universities after my undergraduate school. Question is...do I have to request an official transcript for myself as well for these two schools? Is the wording the same on the unofficial transcript for all universities? I just don't want to pay the extra few bucks and wait myself since I am cutting it close to the deadline for the school I want to apply to...

You need official transcripts from all institutions you have taken classes from.

My dude, please don't waste your money applying in mid to late January. I don't care if their application is still open you probably have a 0% chance of getting in.

Did those credits transfer? If they did, it will show on your official (and unofficial) transcript for your main UG school as transfer credits, and what the equivalent course at your school would have (and how many credits it counts for). Thus, there is no need for the additional transcripts.

It wasn't for transfer. I graduated UG and wanted to get back into dentistry, so I took classes from my CC and one from OSU.

Gotta agree with @stoopidmonkeycatdog

My understanding is that even if you transfer credits, you have to send in your transcripts from each school separately. It must be official.
