BBS Accepting Electronic Transcripts And Education Verification Forms

From the Board Of Behavioral Sciences:

Many schools/universities now have the capability to electronically submit your transcripts and education verification forms (Form A & B) directly to the Board. When preparing to submit your application to the Board, please consult with your school/university to determine whether the school is able to submit documents electronically to the Board, or if you will need to submit a sealed copy of your transcript and/or hard copies of your education verification forms. Please be advised you will be required to include all documents, that are not submitted electronically by your school/university, with your application packet.

Some schools/universities are utilizing third-party electronic transcripts vendor such as Parchment, National Student Clearinghouse, etc. If this is the case for your school/university, please provide to the following email address when ordering:
BBSLCSWtranscripts@dca.ca.gov – ASW/LCSW license applications
BBStranscripts@dca.ca.gov (If you are applying for multiple license types)

Once your electronic documents are received by the Board they will be attached to your electronic file.
