Transcript FAQs

When should I send my grades?

Consult with colleges and universities to determine when to send Cambridge International exam grade transcripts. Institutions generally request an official transcript after a student has matriculated to (been accepted to and committed to), because it is used to determine the appropriate credit and course placement by the registrar.

Most admissions applications, including the Common Application, ask students to self-report grades. Official transcripts are typically not requested by institutions during the admissions process.

Students may submit a single request that can include both past exam series and one upcoming series’ grades that are not yet released. Future exam series can be selected in the form about three months prior to exams. June series results may be added to a request as early as late February before.

When will institutions receive my grades?

Transcripts from past exam series are available to institutions within 14 days after we receive payment. Pre-ordered transcripts for future series or results that are not yet released are made available to institutions within 14 days of results release. Institutions are notified by email when results are available for them to download.

Why is there a fee to send transcripts?

Student requests for transcripts have increased rapidly in recent years along with operational costs. The fee per transcript will help to ensure all student requests can be fulfilled expeditiously, tracked online, and available to colleges and universities by the dates indicated.

Can I request transcripts for a series before I take exams or receive results?

Yes. About 3 months before each exam series starts, the series will become available to select in the Grade Transcript Form. You can pre-order June series transcripts starting in late February, and November series transcripts starting in mid-August.

Students may submit a single request for a fee of $17 per institution that can include both past exam series and one upcoming series’ grades that are not yet released. Transcripts from past exam series are available to institutions within 14 days after we receive payment. Pre-ordered transcripts for future series or results that are not yet released are made available to institutions within 14 days of results release.

Can I pick which exam grades are sent?

Can I pick which exam grades are sent?

No. You can choose one or more exam series to send (e.g., June 2021 and November 2021), but you cannot choose individual subjects from the series. All passing grades from exams you took during the series will appear in your transcript.

How do US colleges and universities use exam grades? Can I get college credit?

Most US institutions award credit or advanced course placement for qualifying grades on AS & A Level exams. Several US states offer college credit for success on AS & A Level exams. Search the  Recognition Policy database to find admission, credit, and placement policies of colleges and universities. Check with institutions directly for their most up-to-date policies.

How do I send grades outside the US?

To send grade transcripts to a college or university outside the USA or the United Kingdom, please apply for a Certifying Statement. Students applying to a university in the United Kingdom do not need to send their exam grades. Colleges and universities in the United Kingdom may access applicants’ grades using the Universities and Colleges Admissions Service (UCAS).

Where can I get help?

If you need assistance with the online form, email Customer Services or call 917-810-2660 (toll free, open 24 hours from Saturday 8 pm to Friday 7:59 am, Eastern Time).
