Faxes and copies are not accepted. Transcripts can be mailed to the Office of Admissions, One Main Street, GSB308, Houston, TX 77002.

Electronic Delivery

UHD prefers the use of EDI/SPEEDE transcript submission. However, if this option is not available, official paper transcripts are acceptable as long as they are unopened and bearing the seal of the sending institution.

If sending your official transcripts by a 3rd party service such as eSCRIP-SAFE, JST, National Student Clearinghouse, Parchment/DocuFide, ADDS/AVOW, etc. please use the [email protected] email address. PLEASE NOTE: PDF transcripts must be sent directly from the issuing company and directly to the [email protected] email address to be considered official.

If you are unsure as to whether or not your electronic transcripts will be considered official at UHD, please contact the Office of Admissions by phone at 713-221-8522 or via email at [email protected] before you request or send your electronic transcripts.

International Delivery

International Freshman:

Submit official transcripts of secondary school scores, including mark sheets and date of graduation in their original language. A certified English translation of all transcripts must be included if the originals are not in English.

International Transfer:

Submit official transcripts from all colleges and universities previously attended. If original transcripts are not in English, a certified translation must accompany the original documents. If you attended a college or university outside the United States, your transcripts must be evaluated by a credential evaluation service recognized by UHD prior to applying for admissions to the University.
