How Do I Send My Transcripts?

So, what’s the best way to send your transcripts? How many should you order? Where do you send them? What if your transcripts aren’t in English? We’re going to answer all your transcripts FAQs!

If you’ve already completed university studies, course credit could help you save time and skip over some courses in your Australian degree.

Perusing a website for university admissions info is all fine and dandy, but sometimes you just need to speak to an actual human. We’re here.

When looking to study internationally, you have two options: You can apply directly with the university or, you can apply through one of their international education agents.

Step 1

Send Official Transcripts

  OzTREKK requires one copy of your official transcript, from all institutions at which you’ve studied (must be in English). Please send transcripts via

Email (Preferred): Transcripts must be sent from the school office/admissions office directly or through an official transcript service (e.g., Parchment or MyCreds) to transcripts@oztrekk.com. If you need to have a password on the digital transcript, please use the following:

  • Question: The educational agent that I am working with
  • Password: OZTREKK1 (no spaces, all capitals) or if there’s a character limit or an access code requirement, use 1234

Mail: If they cannot be emailed, transcripts in their original, sealed envelopes must be mailed to the OzTREKK Office.

Questions About Transcripts?
If your documents are not English or if you’re sending a high school transcript from BC, Alberta, or Saskatchewan, please read How do I send my transcripts?

❑   Official English Language Requirement documentation as set out by the Nursing and Midwifery Board of Australia (NMBA) (Transcript showing grades 7–12 taught in English, or your high school transcript with a letter from your elementary school stating English was the language of instruction from grades 7–8, or an English language test.) Please have these documents sent directly from your school to transcripts@oztrekk.com.

Important: Some universities also require an English language declaration form (see Step 3 list below); these are separate documents from the NMBA requirement, above. To ensure your application is processed as quickly as possible, please provide the above documentation along with everything required by the universities to which you’ve applied.

Step 2

Send Passport Photo Page & Complete SSVF

❑  Scan of your passport photo page (PDF) – Please send to study@oztrekk.com.
❑  Fill out the online OzTREKK SSVF Form – We collect this information to meet compliance requirements. If we require further information, we may contact you.

Step 3

Send University-specific Documents

OzTREKK only requires one copy of each document, even if you’re applying to multiple programs. All PDFs must be submitted to study@oztrekk.com. We’ll confirm receipt of your documents, so you can keep track.
