International Services issues a Transcript of Records for all exchange and double degree students automatically and free of charge. This is done after the students have completed their courses as required, and teachers have graded them. Based on the Transcript of Records, students can apply for credit transfer at their home institution for studies completed at JAMK.
The final Transcript of Records is made based on the Learning Agreement and possible changes to the original Learning Agreement. This means that courses chosen in the study plans will also be in the Transcript of Records. The grading scale (see Courses and Assessment) are also shown in the Transcript of Records.
When, how and to whom are the Transcript of Records sent?
When
Transcript of Records are sent twice a year:
- for spring semester/the whole academic year within 5 weeks after all the grades have been given or by the end of September at the latest
- for autumn semester within 5 weeks after all the grades have been given or by the end of February at the latest
How and to whom
JAMK applies a modern digital authentication solution called PassTrace to protect the certificates given by JAMK, including also Exchange Student's Transcript of Records, from counterfeiting and other misuse.
JAMK does not issue paper copies of transcripts, but transcripts are sent directly and only to students by secure email. Students may print out their own transcript with the digital signature of the issuing institution as a two-dimensional barcode called QR code. The signature and its verification process is digital and therefore, a copy of the original document can be used without compromising the protection.
