Anyone know if I need scans of my official transcripts on my application?
The a small college I went to 10 years ago is losing their accreditation and wont give me any copies of the official transcripts.
You seem to be asking two separate questions and I will address them separately.
1) Can I send scans of transcripts on my application?
All scans of transcripts (official or unofficial) are considered unofficial. AFAIK, in the States, all college transcripts must be sealed in the envelope to be considered official. Thus, anything that gets sent through Apply Yourself will be considered self-reported and unofficial.
After you are admitted, you are required to have your official transcripts sent and I had ordered sealed transcripts to be sent to my house and I resent everything in a large envelope post admittance. Which leads to your next question of..
2) What do I do if the college I went to wont give me any copies of official transcripts if Duke needs them as part of the admission verification process?
If your college wont send you official transcripts, they should be at least able to send them on your behalf directly to the school (in this case, Duke). This is a service that all colleges should be able to provide regardless of accreditation status.
