Submit unofficial transcripts for review to transferservices@umsl.edu and use Pre-Evaluation as the subject line. Please include the following information with your correspondence:

Colleges or universities you have attended and a transcript for each,
The major or program you wish to pursue at UMSL,
Your contact information (email, phone number, and mailing address),
Your birth date, and

For this reason, if you have taken education courses other than in conjunction with the AAT program at the community college, it is advised that you contact UMSL College of Education directly at 314-516-5937 or at oasis@umsl.edu.

Evaluations can take around five to seven business days. All results of pre-evaluations are considered unofficial and subject to change at the time of the student’s admission to UMSL.
