1 THE UNIVERSITY OF HONG KONG APPLICATION FOR TRANSCRIPT 253/912 amended Please read the instructions carefully before submitting your application. INSTRUCTIONS TO APPLICANTS A transcript is a student s full academic record in this University. If a student has attended more than one study programme, all courses of study and examination results, if appropriate, will be printed on the same document. Students are advised NOT to apply for transcripts during periods where course records are subject to change (e.g. examination results reporting, course registration and add-drop periods). If a request was made during these periods and changes occurred after the transcript was printed, a fresh application will be required if the student needs an updated copy of the transcript. Request for transcript by a third party must bear the student s authorization, i.e. an authorization letter signed by the student and a photocopy of the student s HKID Card/Passport. The University reserves the right to withhold issuance of transcript to a student owing fees or any other debt to the University, or who has failed to discharge all obligations towards the University.
