Post-Secondary Institution Selections and XML Preview on the School Secure Web

StudentTranscripts Service (STS) - Post-Secondary Institution Selections
Grade 12 students can make their post-secondary institution (PSI) selections in the StudentTranscripts Servicehttps://www2.gov.bc.ca/gov/content/education-training/k-12/support/transcripts-and-certificates (STS). How and when transcript information is sent will depend on the PSI and the options selected in STS. For full details, please visit the Transcripts and Post-Secondary Selectionhttps://www2.gov.bc.ca/gov/content/education-training/k-12/support/transcripts-and-certificates/post-secondary-selection web page.

Grade 12 students can make up to 25 free PSI selections in STS. They are also entitled to order one free printed transcript (by mail) after graduation, which can be sent to any address they choose. All other transcript orders in STS (including PDF transcriptshttps://www2.gov.bc.ca/gov/content/education-training/k-12/support/transcripts-and-certificates/pdf-transcripts) are $10 each.

Important Reminder about Authorizing Select PSIs to Retrieve Transcripts Updates
If a student's selected PSI is capable of receiving ongoing electronic updateshttps://www2.gov.bc.ca/gov/content/education-training/k-12/support/transcripts-and-certificates/post-secondary-selection#electronically (i.e., XML transcripts), the student should choose the second option to "Send my transcript now and allow this Post-Secondary Institution to request transcript updates until the date specified below." To ensure there are no issues with their PSI application process, it is also recommended that they leave the authorization period set to the default date of one year.

Schools now have the option to preview on the School Secure Webhttps://www.bced.gov.bc.ca/exams/tsw/principals/index.jsp what is currently available to an XML post-secondary institution that has been authorized by a student to receive transcript updates via XML data transfer.

Help Resources
Detailed STS help videos and documentation are available at StudentTranscripts Service Help Documentationhttps://www2.gov.bc.ca/gov/content/education-training/k-12/support/transcripts-and-certificates/studenttranscripts-services-help.
