I asked this question to IQAS before sending my documents, as I have 2 degree and sending them separately will be expensive. Below is the response from IQAS. After going through this response I sent the transcripts (sealed copy) in one single envelop.My timelines are as below:
Documents reached IQAS - 25 Oct.
Status as on date - No communication from IQAS.
I just downloaded my IQAS form. I noticed that in section - Have you requested original documents for your credentials be sent directly to IQAS - Answer in form is coming as NO
I just checked the form that i sent to IQAS. It did not have any such section in October when i filled the form.
I have sent my transcripts on my own to IQAS in October in a sealed envelope as recieved from University.
Will it be an issue. I am worried. Any one in same boat
Generally IQAS accepts official transcripts/mark sheets that confirm graduation, and which are sent directly by the issuing institution. Official transcripts sent directly by the issuing institution(s) may be a photocopy of the diploma supplement bearing the institution(s)’ respective stamps on them. We do not require the original transcripts issued to a student upon graduation, and no other form of legalization is required. However, in cases where the issuing institution cannot send transcripts directly to IQAS, they may provide you with a sealed envelope with your attested transcripts enclosed which may be couriered by you to our office. The envelope must remain sealed, and has to be stamped with the institution’s official seal across the back flap. If there are concerns about the integrity of the documents, our office will contact you.
