Hello Joe and Happy Holidays,
It would be helpful if the transmittal would include immunization records showing proof of the two doses of MMR and all transcripts from previously attended institutions. If possible, it is also helpful if it would include the students high school transcripts and ACT/SAT test scores as we will use that information for advising.
On another note, it would also be helpful when MSU is forwarding transmittals if their transcripts from other MSU colleges could look a little more like a transcript. If a student attends MSU Billings, and transfers to Bozeman, the transcript from Billings would show up in Bozeman's file as "DASH BOARD" and our student workers sometimes miss that transcript because it says 'Dash Board', not MSU-Billings Transcript.
Let me know if you have any questions and thank you for your help on this.
Best,
Matt

Good Morning, Everyone:
I hope you are all finding time for a well-deserved break.
I and a MACRAO subgroup are continuing work on the transmittal process, to see if we can incorporate the form into the system application portal and in other ways simplify the process for both students and campus staff.
One issue we identified is that there is not a standard recommended list of documents to send with a transmittal as a part of the single admissions file. Could you respond with what your campus needs/prefers be sent with a transmittal to enable admission?
I'll compile the list into a checklist of suggested/required documents for transmittal. Perhaps we can all review at the Spring MACRAO meeting, when I hope we will also have other updates and items for discussion related to the transmittal process.
Kind Regards,
Joseph Thiel
Director of Academic Policy and Research
