Official scanned copies of transcripts from all post-secondary institutions are required. We will not review an application for admission consideration without scans or physical copies of official transcripts on record. Anything other than scans of official transcripts will result in a delay in processing your application.
If you are an international applicant, you must upload scans of official transcripts with degree statements (proof of degree) in their original language, along with English language translations that follow the format of the original documents.
When the policy of the institution prohibits issuing the transcripts directly to another institution, a photocopy of the original document certified by an official of that educational institution, an embassy office, the Ministry of Education, or the Ministry of Foreign Affairs may be submitted for review. If you are in possession of the only original transcript your institution issues, you may submit a certified photocopy of that document for our initial application review. Please note you will be required to present the original official document for evaluation prior to enrollment.
Applicants from Pakistani or Indian universities must submit mark sheets from your university certified as true copies of the originals. If exams are not administered by the university until the final year of the degree program, please provide an official letter from the college to verify this fact.
Any questions surrounding transcripts, including what is acceptable or not, should be directed to
gpadmi...@osu.edu. The Office of Graduate and Professional Admissions oversees all transcript related questions.
A minimum score of 79 on the Internet-based (IBT) TOEFL is required in order to be considered for admission. A minimum of 7.0 on the International English Language Testing System (IELTS) is also acceptable. For more information about possible exceptions from the English language requirement, please visit FAQ 9.
If you do not meet the minimum English language score required your application will not be reviewed until you reach or surpass the minimum required score. If you do not meet the minimum required score prior to the application deadline, your application will be canceled.
