From U.S. institutions

We are able to review your application using unofficial, digitally duplicated copies of your transcripts submitted within the online application.

If offered admission, the offer will be contingent upon receipt and verification of official transcripts.

Official transcripts should be sent directly from the institution to Enrollment Management, 2900 University Capitol Centre, 201 S. Clinton Street, Iowa City, IA 52242 or admissions@uiowa.edu (do not send unofficial copies to this account). Official mailed records must be received in a sealed envelope directly from the issuing institution. Credentials submitted for admission become the property of the university and are not returnable or transferable.

Current or former University of Iowa students need not request University of Iowa transcripts or other transcripts previously submitted to the university.

From non-U.S. institutions

We are able to review your application using unofficial, digitally duplicated copies of your transcripts (or marks sheets as well as a degree certificate for Indian applicants) submitted within the online application.

If offered admission, the offer will be contingent upon receipt and verification of official transcripts.

Official transcripts from non-U.S. schools must bear the original stamp or seal and signature of a school officer.

Official transcripts should be sent directly from the issuing institution to admissions@uiowa.edu (do not send unofficial copies to this account). 

These records must include:

• subjects studied by year, with grades, marks, or percentages;
• number of weekly lecture and laboratory hours in each subject;
• grades, marks, or percentages earned in year-end examinations;
• proof that the degree was conferred (i.e., diplomas, titles, degrees, or certificates awarded).

Documents not in English must be accompanied by official English translations certified by the issuing institution. Photocopies without this certification will not be considered official.

Questions about international transcripts can be directed to internationalgrad@uiowa.edu. General admissions questions for the above-listed programs can be directed to tippie-admissions@uiowa.edu.
