Your official transcripts should be sent by your alma mater to Walden in one of the following ways:

1. By E-mail: [email protected]

2. By Postal Mail (If you are using this method, I would recommend using a service that will allow you to track the progress of the posted items.)

Walden University
Office of Admissions
7080 Samuel Morse Drive, Suite 100
Columbia, MD 21046

Note: A Contingency Hold is placed on students’ accounts if they are missing an official copy of their transcripts from their alma mater. Official copies of transcripts are those that are sent to Walden University directly from the alma mater, in a signed and sealed envelope to ensure that the transcripts have not been altered.

Students typically apply and can even start their Walden program with an unofficial copy of the transcript and are given a few months’ time to submit an official copy. If the copy is not received before the end of the first term, a Contingency Hold is placed on students’ account. This hold will prevent registration for upcoming terms and will not be lifted until the official copies have been received by Walden. Your Enrollment Specialist can assist with questions related to your official transcript during the enrollment process.
