Official transcript accepted as certificat of award?

Post by mimsie » Thu Mar 26, 2009 4:32 pm

I can't get my original diploma in time for my application (I have a BA only)

I do have an official transcript from my university that also clearly states the degree I was awarded.

Does anyone know if this will be acceptable? Thanks.

Hi,

You also need your diploma certificate. There has been instances, when the application has been rejected.

The original certificate of award must always be provided unless the applicant is awaiting graduation having successfully completed their degree.

If you have just finished your degree then you're fine, you'll just need a letter from your college/university and the transcript.

Else the case will be rejected as you will not be able to claim points for your BA

As the others have said, I don't think this will be acceptable. You will need to have a certificate, unless you are awaiting your graduation ceremony. You can try submitting your application without it, but I'd suspect that it may well be rejected on that front.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news....

If you are awaiting graduation.

Please refer to the guidance notes (http://www.bia.homeoffice.gov.uk/workin ... /applying/) page 16, sections 74, 75 and 76,77 which explains which docs to provide in case you are awaiting graduation....

Please read para 77 carefully as this might help..

All the best....
