Transcripts

BCA provides transcripts to each student's U.S. college or university at the end of every semester. Students are asked to communicate with their academic advisors and remember to register before and during semester abroad.

Transcripts vs. Course Reports

For students who study in Athens, Brussels, Cheltenham, Derry, Dunedin, Quito, Sapporo or Sydney, a transcript issued by the foreign host university will be provided.

For those students who study in Barcelona, Marburg, Strasbourg, or Xalapa, a course report will be issued by BCA.

School of Record

Elizabethtown College acts as a school of record for BCA, which enables Elizabethtown College to issue transcripts for returning BCA study abroad students if their university requires a transcript issued from a U.S. degree-granting institution. Students need to submit a written request for a school of record transcript prior to studying abroad. Please contact Director of Program Services Elizabeth Huskin at ehuskin@BCAabroad.org for more information on this service.

Requesting a Transcript

BCA keeps an official copy of each student's transcript on file at the central office. Requests for additional transcripts reflecting study at BCA locations should be sent to the BCA central office. Requests cannot be made by e-mail.

The written request should include:

  • student's full name at the time of study abroad
  • dates of attendance
  • the complete mailing address where the transcript(s)/course report(s) should be sent
  • student's current e-mail address
  • student's signature
  • a check made out to ‘BCA’ for $5 (USD) per transcript/grade report

Mail request to:

BCA: Transcripts/Course Reports
50 Alpha Drive
Elizabethtown, PA  17022

If fees are paid in full, we'll send an official transcript/course report to the student's home college or university and an unofficial copy to the student's home address; an official copy is kept at the BCA central office.
