Applying to Colleges/Universities
Reminder sent to grads that completing the STUDENT TRANSCRIPT SERVICES is NOT the same as submitting an application to the colleges or universities. STS registration is only to allow student's choices of post-secondary institutions (PSI) to access the transcript when PSI need to evaluate the student's application. To apply to colleges/universities, the student must use the application portal - Education Planner BC. Visit the website HERE. Check guides (includes PSIs outside BC) HERE.
