Check to make sure the college/university transcript(s) are official. An “official” transcript can either come from the educator in an officially sealed College or University envelope or from the university or it’s transcript processing service who may send transcripts electronically or through the mail. These rules also apply to out-of-country translated evaluations.  \nIMPORTANT: University/college transcripts received from school districts are considered unofficial.  \n 2. Upload the transcript in ELIS. Follow these steps to ensure proper uploading:  \n1. Once you have located the educator’s ELIS account, select the Images tab.  \n2. Click “Add Image”  \n3. Choose the the appropriate document code:  \na. TRAN: an official transcript  \nb. UTRAN: an unofficial transcript  \nc. FTCRED: an official out-of-country credential evaluation  \nd. HSDIP: a high school diploma or transcript (copy or original)  \ne. GEDSCR: a GED score report  \nf. OTHER: this document code should only be used if the document cannot be described as oneof the above  \n4. You may type a brief description of the document in the Description box if you’d like. If using the OTHER image code, always add a description of the document being uploaded.  \n5. Choose the appropriate country, state, and institution (if uploading a college transcript) that corresponds with the transcript.  \n6. Click “Choose File” or drag and drop the file to the “Choose File” section. Note: only documents in PDF format can be uploaded. If the image you tried to drag and drop does not attach correctly, then utilize the “Choose File” uploading method.  \nTranscript Uploading Tips  \n• If the image you are uploading is an official transcript, then no description is required, but you may add one if you’d like.  \n• If the image uploaded is an unofficial transcript, please indicate how the transcript was received; i.e. , by the educator, school district, university, etc. REMEMBER: do not add a degree based off an unofficial transcript.  \n• Only out-of-country evaluation reports received in a sealed envelope or directly from an ISBE approved evaluation company can be uploaded as FTCRED. A list of approved evaluation companies may be found here.  \n[isbe](isbe.net)[.net](isbe.net)  \nDecember 2024  \n• If a out-of-country translation report is received from an educator via email or in a non-sealed envelope from the educator, the document should be uploaded as UTRAN and in the description noted as: educator emailed or educator opened. REMEMBER: do not add a degree based off an unofficial out-of-country evaluation report.  \n• If you are adding new documentation to an account that has a Rush Request on file within the last 4 months for an open or deficient application, please email [ROE@isbe. net](ROE@isbe. net) with the name, IEIN, and a request to re-rush the application since new documentation has been received.  \nAdding Degrees  \nChecklist for Degrees from College/University Transcripts and Out-of-country Credential Evaluations  \n 1. Confirm REGIONAL accreditation of the college or university via one of the options below:  \n• Option 1: Check for regional accreditation by visiting the appropriate regional accrediting body website below, and search for the college/university:  \na. Western Association of Schools and Colleges – accredits institutions in California, Hawaii, and the Pacific. -[https://www.acswasc.org/](https://www.acswasc.org/)  \nb.
