Undergraduate
All new undergraduate and new transfer students will submit transcripts to the Office of Undergraduate Admissions. All current or former undergraduate students will submit transcripts to the Registrar’s Office. If transcripts are mistakenly sent to the wrong office, we will make sure they are forwarded to the appropriate office.

Official transcripts need to be hand-carried in a sealed official school envelope or mailed directly from the school to WSU. Faxed copies to the university are not considered official and will not be accepted. Official transcripts sent electronically will be accepted if they are sent by the issuing institution through an approved e-transcript vendor. However, they are not accepted from you or another institution as an attachment or forwarded email.

New undergraduate and transfer students (US Citizen and Permanent Resident) 
Please submit official high school and college transcript(s) to:

Office of Admissions
Wichita State University
1845 Fairmount Street
Wichita, KS 67260-0124

Electronic delivery: admissions@wichita.edu

Additional notes for new undergraduate and transfer students:

• High School transcripts
  Once you have graduated from high school, you should have official graduation transcripts sent directly to Wichita State; or official transcripts may be hand-carried in a sealed official school envelope. Final high school transcripts cannot be faxed. Before you graduate from high school, transcripts or class schedules can be sent by fax to 316-978-3174. 
• College transcripts
  Transfer students with credit from previous colleges should have all official transcripts sent directly to Wichita State during the application process. Faxed, photocopied or transcripts that have been issued to the student and had the seal of the envelope broken are not considered official and will not be accepted for admission.
• General Equivalency Diploma (GED)
  GED scores should be requested from ged.com or hand-carried in an official sealed envelope (transcript must be from the online service, not from location test was taken).
• ACT/SAT scores
  The Office of Admissions will accept ACT and SAT test scores placed on official high school transcripts. It is highly recommended that you have test scores sent directly to WSU from the testing agency. Students who are home-schooled must have ACT/SAT scores sent officially from the testing agency.
