Official Transcript Options

Electronic Transcripts

We highly recommend requesting your institution to send your transcripts electronically through a TREx (for Texas institutions) or EDI (Electronic Data Interchange) system. This method is preferred as it enables faster processing of your application. All official transcripts should be sent to admissions@uhv.edu.

International transfer students are required to submit their official academic evaluations for international transcripts.

eDoc Service

If electronic submission is not available, you can ask your institution to send a PDF version of your official transcript through secure eDoc services such as Naviance/Parchment or Speede (FICE code: 013231). When prompted for our university email, please provide admissions@uhv.edu. Please note that transcripts sent via email as direct attachments will not be accepted as official documents.

Mailed Transcripts

If electronic submission or eDoc services are not feasible, you can request your institution to mail your official transcripts to the following address:

Office of Admissions
University of Houston-Victoria
3007 N. Ben Wilson
Victoria, TX 77901

Authenticity

Ensuring the authenticity and accuracy of your transcripts is vital in our evaluation process. UHV accepts official transcripts directly from the issuing institution. Please make sure that the transcripts are sent directly for a smooth application process.

If you have any questions or need further guidance regarding the submission of official transcripts, our admissions team is here to assist you. We appreciate your attention to this requirement and look forward to reviewing your application.
