Before submitting an application, applicants are required to upload one (1) copy of a scanned unofficial transcript from each institution attended. Admitted applicants send official transcripts at the time of admission.
Once you have uploaded your file, click the “View Document” button to ensure that what you’ve uploaded is legible throughout.
If you cannot upload a legible unofficial transcript, you will be asked to have an official transcript mailed to Duke. Contact us for help. This is a variation of our standard process and will delay review of your application.
Applicants from China and India may find these Transcript Guidelines helpful.
Upload to us the official scale your institutions uses.
Your Grade Scale (also known as: grading system, score system, or percentage system) tells us what your grades mean.
It does not need to convert to a 4.0 scale, but should show differentiation between passing scores, and indicate what is a failing score at your institution. It should also explain other marks on your transcript, such as Withdrawal, Audit, or Incomplete.
Please upload to us the official scale your institution uses. This can be the reverse side of your transcript, a screenshot of the registrar’s guidelines or an excerpt from your transcript.
Please see the examples below.
