Transcripts

Transcripts are available in person at the Registrar's Office for a cost of $12. Check with us before ordering the USC electronic transcript due to restrictions in use. If you're providing a non-USC official transcript to us, be sure to order it from the institution, including study abroad, before the deadline and have it sent to our office in a sealed envelope. Official transcripts should be ordered from other institutions in advance of the institutional deadline and sent directly to  or hand-delivered in a sealed envelope to:

National Fellowships and Scholar Programs
902 Sumter Street
DeSaussure 328
Columbia, SC 29208

We're happy to help you prepare a hard copy of your transcript for a competition submission. You can call for an appointment or leave your transcripts and flash drive to be scanned. For questions about transcripts required for a competition, contact us early in the process.

  

Engage with Faculty Experts

At the University of South Carolina, you don't have to navigate the national fellowship process alone. We encourage you to reach out to the faculty and staff experts across campus to help you consider, apply for and win awards.
