Official transcripts. During the initial phase of application process, simply upload one copy of official transcripts from all post-secondary institutions attended into the application system. YOU DO NOT NEED TO SEND COPIES OF YOUR OFFICIAL TRANSCRIPTS TO THE DEPARTMENT OF ANTHROPOLOGY UNTIL YOUR APPLICATION IS ACCEPTED. UCSB Graduate Division no longer requires two copies of Official Transcripts as part of the initial application phase. If your application is accepted by the Department of Anthropology, you will then be required to submit single copies of Official Transcripts to UCSB Graduate Division to verify your enrollment eligibility. This allows you to use one copy of your official transcripts to upload for all of the institutions to which you apply and which use a similar application process. This is becoming a more common practice among graduate schools across the nation and will hopefully save you money, time, and hassle in not having to order numerous copies for each institution.
