Official Transcript/ Testimonial

 

Transcripts serve to indicate students' status, courses taken, grades attained, and grade point averages. Please note that thesis title and supervisor information will only be shown on testimonials for Research Postgraduate students.
For students who wish to share their transcript with World Education Services (WES):
As WES has an established relationship with HKBU, students who wish to share their transcript with WES can indicate their WES reference number in their remarks in the application. The transcript will therefore NOT be sent by registered mail to WES. A fee of HK$70 for an official transcript should be submitted to the Graduate School. No courier service fee is required.
Graduates of 2020 and after can share their transcripts with WES directly through the HKBU Digital Credential System and enter submit@wes.org as the recipient along with their WES reference number in the remarks. No fee should be paid to the Graduate School in this case.
