Does UA only accept paper transcripts?

Cannot locate a “college code” for transcripts. Just ACT and SAT codes for Bama. Any insight?

I don’t know the answer to your question specifically. However, UA only accepts OFFICIAL transcripts, and these are usually coming either directly from a school (and they will either have the code in their electronic system or they will be mailing a copy to UA), OR you can send the official transcript in a sealed envelope (and this you will receive from a school that way). Either way, YOU are never going to be the one sending the transcript electronically, in my experience.

Our GC had to send a paper one. Our GC had an issue trying to send it electronically.

Alabama
ACT Code is 0052. FASFA Code is 001051. As above HS should electronically send transcripts. For SAT, College Board will allow you to select Alabama when your requesting the score. This goes for ACT too.
