Help on Uploading Transcripts

Some of you have expressed having some difficulty uploading transcripts through our online application.

If you are facing issues with the file size limit, here are some tips that may help:

• reduce the resolution of the scan to reduce the file size of the resultant image (150 dpi ought to be enough)
• break up the scan into multiple scans and upload them in separate fields (there are four upload fields).  Although the upload fields are designated for up to four schools, you may use any unused upload field if you attended fewer than four institutions
• consider scanning in grayscale instead of full color

We have increased the file size capacity from 500KB to 1MB for those of you with larger/more detailed transcripts.

As always, please be sure that the documents you scan are clear and legible.  If you cannot read them, odds are we can't either! Consider sending them to a friend or associate to guarantee their legibility.

My transcript is on URSA (I went to UCLA as an undergrade), can I copy and paste the text of the transcript into a word document or do I have to scan it in as an image?

please advice. thanks!
