Hi all,
I have transcripts from multiple colleges in the past. Now I'll apply to Nursing School this Fall. Some transcripts don't have anything that can be transferred to the new Nursing degree. Do I have to send them those unrelated transcripts as well?

While it will ultimately depend upon the school to which you are applying it is likely that they will want all transcripts; regardless of whether the courses transfer into the nursing program or not.

Good day, Altran:
Call the nursing school to see if they will give you a waiver for specific transcripts; otherwise, normally you need to send them.
Thank you.

Yes they will want them all, even if some don't transfer, it is more for the financial aid reason than anything else. I am an older student and literally had 7 transcripts to get to my school.

Yes, they generally need them all. I have 4 transcripts, and had to have them all sent to each school I applied to. Not all of them have stuff necessary for my degree.
