Submit Your Transcripts

Your high school transcript helps us determine appropriate course placement for you. Once your application is filed, you must submit an official copy of your high school transcript or GED and any college transcripts. Transcripts may be delivered by mail, email or in person. If delivered in person the transcript must be sealed. If delivered via email, the transcripts must come directly from the academic institution.

Please review the following for more specific transcript submission details.

All Official College Transcripts should be submitted to the Student Records Office. 

• Email Submissions: srecords@ptc.edu
• Mail Submissions: Attn: Student Records, P.O. Box 1467, Greenwood, SC 29648

All Official High School Transcripts  and GED Transcripts should be submitted to the Admissions Office. Contact the issuing institution to have copies sent to Piedmont Tech.

• Email Submissions: admissions.a@ptc.edu
• Mail Submissions: Attn: Admissions Office, P.O. Box 1467, Greenwood, SC 29648

 

If you completed college/university coursework outside of the United States, your transcripts must be evaluated by a NACES (National Association of Credential Evaluation Services) member evaluator. A list of agencies can be found at www.naces.org.

Note: Although PTC prefers your official transcript for more accurate course placement, the college will accept your original High School/GED diploma as verification in lieu of the official transcript for Admission purposes. Diplomas must be delivered in person to the Admissions Office or County Campus location. Note that an official transcript may still be required to receive certain forms of financial aid.

If you completed high school outside the United States, please contact Chris Thomas about required documentation.
