I am searching possible nursing faculty jobs to apply for and I see they want my resume, cover letter and transcripts. Are these transcripts my school transcripts?

I cant imagine that applying to anything other than school transcripts. You can always call to see though, if youre still unsure.

So which ones or would I send them all? I have my ADN, BSN and MSN transcripts. I am assuming my MSN transcripts.

I imagine they will want your original nursing transcripts but why dont you ask them which ones they want

Oh my! I see why you're asking this, you have 19 years of experience. Why in the world would they want your school transcripts? Someone with your extensive experience shouldn't need them.

it seems that it is a standard practice when applying for faculty positions. i think that the hiring institutions want to check the authenticity of your degrees. also, it is a department of education requirement. they want your nursing transcripts (usually the highest degree or in some cases, all the nursing transcripts). you can just request the transcripts from your alma mater via email, phone or online. also, request a copy from your records. they will send you unofficial ones.

good luck!
