For every other college I’m applying to, I’m using parchment. But for both UT and A&M they say on their websites that they don’t want parchment and they don’t prefer that you mail your transcripts. So how am I supposed to upload my transcript?
From UT’s website:
Submit transcripts using the Document Upload System. The uploaded document must be a digital scan or PDF version of an official transcript. (Be sure to include both the front and back!) Any document labeled “unofficial,” grade reports or advising reports, photos (i.e., images taken with a smartphone) and screen shots are not acceptable.
Both can receive transcripts through SPEEDE. A&M accepts transcripts through Parchment and National Student Clearinghouse, and doesn’t seem to discourage mailed transcripts either.
