International Transcripts

The process for requesting transcripts from outside the United States, its territories, or Canada is different than requesting transcripts from schools in the U.S. or Canada. Here’s a look at that process and the different requirements for schools in different countries.

Ordering Transcripts/Academic Records

You MUST request that the issuing institution send your international transcripts, academic records, mark sheets, and degree certifications directly to LSAC IF you are applying to a law school that requires Credential Assembly Service Authentication and Evaluation (CAS A&E) and:

you received your bachelor’s degree from an institution outside of the United States, its territories, or Canada; or
you were directly enrolled at one or more institutions outside of the United States, its territories, or Canada, and the total amount of work you completed at all of these institutions combined is the equivalent of more than one year of study in the United States, its territories, or Canada.

All documents must be sent directly to LSAC by the issuing institution in a securely closed envelope and with the institution’s official stamp or seal across the securely closed flap. Documents issued to the student or sent from the student are unacceptable, as are loose documents inserted directly into an express mailer. When using an express mail service, the securely closed envelope from the institution must be contained inside the express mailer.

If an international institution issues only one “original” transcript to the student, then LSAC will accept a copy certified by the issuing institution as a true and correct copy of the original.

All international educational records must be submitted in the original language. If the transcript or other required documents are not in English, a translation must be included.

You are not required to have a transcript sent from an international institution IF your bachelor’s degree is from a U.S., U.S. territory, or Canadian school, and:

the total amount of work you completed at all international institutions combined does not exceed the equivalent of more than one year of undergraduate study in the United States, its territories, or Canada; or
your work was completed through an overseas study program that was clearly sponsored by a U.S., U.S. territory, or Canadian school. In this case, the transcript must be sent by the sponsoring school.

Transcript Evaluation

An international credential evaluation is completed to determine degree and credit equivalency to degrees/credit earned in the U.S. This is completed by the American Association of Collegiate Registrars and Admissions Officers (AACRAO) via LSAC, once you’ve completed your CAS registration and all international documents have been processed.

You'll need to allow at least two weeks for evaluation from the time transcripts are processed.
