Q. What constitutes an official, final transcript?
Writer AdministratorHits128
A. Official transcripts are valid when they are issued by the school you attended. They have an official seal/stamp and an official signature by an appropriate academic administrative officer. They are sealed by the university. Photocopied documents are NOT official. Final transcripts state that a degree has been conferred and provide the date of conferral. A provisional certificate, therefore, is not final, but temporary.
