Applying for PhD as a transferred undergraduate: do I need transcripts from my previous institution? I am an undergraduate student planning to apply for Ph.D.
The thing is that I spent the first year of my undergraduate at another university. I did transfer some credits but I didn't transfer any major credits. The question is - do I need to include my transcript for the first year in the application? Or could it be based on the institute I am applying to? The GPA of my first year is not bad but getting the transcript is a little bit tricky since the institue is in another country.
I really appreciate your input!
They will probably ask for it.
That being said this is a question for the institution you are applying to. Send an email or call their graduate college to figure out what is necessary in your particular case.
