Are you planning on attending a Post Secondary Institution next fall? PSIs require a copy of your official transcript in order to process your application to their school. The Ministry of Education provides you with an opportunity to have your transcripts automatically sent to the institutions of your choice for NO FEE. This is an on-line process that is limited in time. This is the only time that your transcripts will be available free of charge. After the given deadlines you will be charged for EACH transcript you require and will need to deliver the transcripts on your own.
The PSI Selections form is now available online. This electronic PSI Selections form should only be submitted by students who expect to graduate this year and are applying to a PSI
Students access the online form by logging into the Student Secure Web (SSW) site: https://www.bced.gov.bc.ca/exams/tsw/tsw/student/ and click the “Post Secondary Institutions Selections” menu option. Note that students who do not yet have a SSW account will need to create one prior to gaining access to the PSI Selections form. All students in BC can make an account using their PEN – a nine digit number located at the top of each report card.
Students’ PSI selections must be submitted by April 30 for interim transcript information to be forwarded to BC and Ontario Universities Application Centre (OUAC) institutions in May for early admission. For final transcript information to be sent to PSIs by July 31, 2010, students must submit their PSI selections by June 30. In addition to the BC Electronic PSI’ option and the OUAC Electronic PSIs option in Section 1 of the form, students may submit a maximum of six selections. Requests to send transcripts to additional PSIs can be made for a fee by completing a “Transcript Request Form” available at: http://www.bced.gov.bc.ca/transcript/transcripts_ordering.htm
If a desired institution is not listed, students may submit a “PSI Additions Form” directly from the online PSI Selections form or by going to the following web site: http://www.bced.gov.bc.ca/exams/handbook/psi/psichange_new.htm
After submitting their selections, students will receive a printable confirmation page for reference purposes. At any point in time, students can log back into SSW and view their selections by using the “View PSI Selections” menu option. PSI selections submitted by mid-May will appear on the Transcript Verification Reports that are scheduled to be posted on May 20.
