FAQ 6

How should transcripts be sent?

Transcripts must be sent directly from the institutions attended. Transcripts issued to you or sent by you will not be processed. Most schools charge a fee for forwarding transcripts. Allow two weeks from the time of receipt for LSAC to process your transcripts.

It is your responsibility to have an official copy of all required transcripts sent to LSAC directly from the registrar's office of each institution. You must use LSAC's Transcript Request Forms for this purpose. If you register online, your Transcript Request Forms will be available only after you register for the LSDAS and enter your school information. Transcript Request Forms are also available in the LSAT & LSDAS Registration Packet for those who register by mail.

Transcript request forms

Log on to your Online Services account, go to the My Docs tab, and select Forms. Your transcript request forms are only available after you register for the LSDAS and enter your school information. To download and print a transcript request form for a school, click on the school's name. Each form is prepopulated with your information and the school's information. To view the form, you must have the Adobe Acrobat® reader plugin installed in your computer.
