Hi,
I am currently applying for the LVN to BSN online program at Indiana State University. I have done my Bachelor of Science and Master of Science from India.
I completed my LVN course in US.
I just applied for the admission to the Indiana university as a degree seeking transfer student for the LVN to BSN program. They have asked to submit the official transcripts. In my case should i send all my mark sheet from my college from India or is there any other special procedure since i have done my degree in India.
Thanks in advance.
Thanks

Generally, transcripts need to be either sent directly from the college, or sent to you in a sealed envelope that you forward (seal unbroken) to the college to which you're applying.

Some colleges actually have a specific department or address that you have foreign transcripts sent to, in order to accurately translate. Not sure in your case, I would call the school and ask their policy. And as said above, transcripts usually should be received in an unopened envelope directly from the school or sent to you and then forwarded on (unopened of course). Good luck with this.

Agree with the above. Anything you have that is not in a sealed envelope with the mark or seal from the school, insuring authenticity, is not accepted by schools. Send a request to your school in India with any required fee and ask them to send an official transcript to ISU.
