Official transcripts for the faculty member's highest earned degree must be on file with the Office of Faculty Affairs.  For instructional faculty, if the highest earned degree is not the degree qualifying the faculty member to serve as an instructor, official transcript(s) must also be submitted for the qualifying degree(s).

DELIVERING OFFICIAL TRANSCRIPTS TO FACULTY AFFAIRS

• Submit official transcript(s) for the faculty member to: 
  Office of Faculty Affairs
  Georgia Institute of Technology
  A. French Building, Suite 111

Guidelines set forth by Academic Faculty Affairs for accepting/submitting official transcripts:

• All official transcripts must be issued to the Office of Faculty Affairs or a department representative. Transcripts issued to the student must be submitted to the department representative in a sealed envelope from the issuing institution to remain an official transcript.
• Once the electronic transcript or degree document has been downloaded or the seal on the envelope is broken by a departmental representative, s/he should sign and date the transcript's first page to attest to the document having been received as an original, official document from the issuing institution. Representatives are urged to use a secure electronic signature; however, Faculty Affairs will accept transcripts that have been hand-signed and dated when the original document with wet signature is provided to the office.
• Secure, certified electronic transcripts may be issued to OFA-Transcripts@gatech.edu.
• For non-US institutions, a foreign credential evaluation must be provided in addition to the degree documents. For university systems in which English language transcripts are not available, please submit a copy of the diploma or foreign language transcript accompanied by a report from a professional credential evaluation service (from a AICE or NACE member organization). A credential evaluation service is not the same as a translation service; contact your local administrator for suggestions. The evaluation document must be signed and dated by the department receiving the document directly from the issuing evaluation service.
• For employees who hold joint appointments with Emory or another University System of Georgia institution, Faculty Affairs will accept a copy of the credentialing file from the other institution.
• For employees of Georgia Tech - Europe, Faculty Affairs will accept a copy of the credentialing information on file at GT-E if clearly comprehensible by Faculty Affairs staff.
• For Georgia Tech degrees and Graduate Student Teaching Assistant instructor of record requests, the unit may submit the "GT Advisor Transcript" generated securely via GT Reports-GTAAD.
• A candidate can also submit an official transcript or an official letter from the Registrar's office of the institution if they have completed all of the requirements for the degree (coursework, defense, final dissertation submitted, etc.), but the degree has not yet been formally conferred. In this case, the candidate must provide evidence that all of the degree requirements have been met, along with a date of award of the degree. In all cases, the final, official transcript must be on file once the degree has been awarded.

For questions related to transcripts, please email Faculty Affairs.
