Can you get an F taken off your transcript?
Petition. Some schools allow students to petition to have a grade removed from use in calculating the cumulative GPA, but the record of the class is not withdrawn from the transcript. If the student’s petition is granted, the F grade will be replaced by FZ on the transcript to show that it has been expunged.
Can I use an unofficial transcript?
Transcripts that have been in the hands of the student such as student copy/unofficial transcripts are not considered official. Unofficial transcripts are printed on plain paper and do not have a college seal or registrar’s signature. Unofficial transcripts cannot be used to transfer to another college or university.
Do official transcripts expire?
College transcripts do not expire and schools are obligated to maintain transcripts for all students who have enrolled in and attended their institution — regardless of whether or not that student graduated.

How many copies of transcripts are required?

Do you have to send all transcripts to grad school?
The rule of thumb here is that you need to request transcripts from all graduate and undergraduate institutions which you have attended. Don’t leave any of them out. Schools want to have your complete undergraduate and graduate academic history, and transcripts are the way to provide them with that.
