Applicants may be enrolled into the MSc Program upon submission of unofficial transcripts (scanned copies of your transcript) as long as the transcripts demonstrate the graduation date and the cumulative GPA from the previously completed degree program.

Students are required to submit their official transcript of their highest degree earned prior to enrolling in the second MScFE course. WQU highly recommends that students request official transcripts from their previously attended institution(s) immediately upon acceptance.

Official transcripts must be sent directly from the previously attended institution via email (preferred) or via postal mail.

Institutions that issue digital official transcripts may submit them via email to admissions@wqu.edu along with relevant details on the digital transcript validation process.

Institutions that issue paper copies only must send them via postal mail in a sealed envelope to the following address:

WorldQuant University
609 H Street NE, Suite 335,
Washington, D.C. 20002
USA

In both cases, the official transcripts must be signed by the appropriate university official and must include the University stamp or logo, as well as the grading scale used by the institution.

If your transcript is in a language other than English, you are required to obtain an official equivalency from an organization recognized by the National Association of Credential Evaluation Services (NACES), such as World Education Services (WES).

Failure to provide an official transcript by the end of the second course in the Program will result in immediate suspension from the MScFE degree Program. Once the official transcript is received, the student may return to the University and resume their Program at the next available course start.

If you have any questions on official transcripts, please do not hesitate to contact us at admissions@wqu.edu.
