How to Submit Transcripts and Test Scores

Complete your application by submitting your official transcript and test scores. This can be completed by using online delivery services. Transcripts can be submitted via Parchment, Student Clearinghouse, or Scoir; alternatively, transcripts can be mailed directly to UAH. Transcripts must come directly from the source to be considered official. Unofficial copies not accepted.

Academic records for high school or college education received outside of the U.S. must be evaluated by a credential evaluation service. View more information about acceptable evaluation services on our International Admissions webpage

Test scores can be sent directly to UAH by the testing agency; simply enter the UAH school code on the respective testing agency website. Note that UAH will not require new freshman students to submit an ACT or SAT score when applying for admission for Fall 2024 - Fall 2025 terms. Visit uah.edu/test-optional for more information.

ACT REQUIREMENT CHANGES

ACT has recently implemented several changes to the ACT Test, including making the Science section of the test optional. In light of this, UAH has decided it will not consider the Science section of the ACT for admissions or scholarships for the 2026-2027 application cycle. Our Admissions Team wants to clarify how this change affects students applying for the Summer and Fall 2026 terms. Please read our ACT FAQs to help you understand how this change may impact you.
