You will need to pay off that balance and/or address that hold with that institution before you can complete your application at Albany State University.
You can start off by visiting each previously attended institution’s online student portal, if applicable, to see if you can request to have your transcripts sent electronically or sent by mail. If you have trouble locating the portal for the institution, then try emailing or calling their Office of the Registrar or equivalent office.
This does not mean your transcript cannot be located. Usually, when an institution closes their doors for good their records are passed along to a third party. Try the following:
- Try searching online for “ (Institution Name) transcripts.” This is a great starting point.
- In the event that you are unable to find any information about requesting the transcripts with an online search, try contacting the Department of Education in the state where that institution was based.
