Study abroad transcripts: required?

[RefurbedScientist]

I did not submit transcripts from my semester abroad to programs yet. All the applications say indicate grades from every school attended, but I selectively ignored those instructions.

What are others doing about study abroad transcripts?

Yes, you are required to send in all transcripts, including study abroad, UNLESS your letter grades from your SA experience are notated in your home institution's transcript (which they probably aren't, unless you studied abroad through your university or an affiliate program).

I always send them as annoying as that can be. But, transcripts from all institutions means from all institutions attended, including study abroad.

I sent in all my study abroad transcripts. It was actually quite a headache for me because I couldn't get my study abroad institution to mail official transcripts and my home university wouldn't certify the official copy they had on file. I had to find a notary to certify a photocopy of my official transcript.

Thanks for the replies. There seems to be a consensus then (though not the consensus I was hoping for).

Ok, I guess I have to shell out another $10 for every application just so schools can see I got an A in Intro to Salsa (and I don't mean the programming language).
