Update regarding transcript requirements for CGSM and Affiliated Fellowships-Master’s – unofficial transcripts are acceptable

Please note that official transcripts are now preferred, but not required, for CGSM and Affiliated Fellowships-Master’s applications.

CIHR, NSERC and SSHRC have indicated that, due to COVID-19, unofficial transcripts will be accepted in cases where CGSM applicants were not able to obtain an official transcript in time for the deadline.  If an applicant is providing an unofficial transcript, it must still be authentic, complete and up to date.

As the Affiliated Fellowships-Master’s application is closely modelled after the CGSM award application, unofficial transcripts are now also permitted for the Affiliated application.

The UBC CGSM and Affiliated Fellowships-Master’s webpages have been updated to reflect this new information.
