What happens if I discretely open up my high school transcript?

<p>I requested about 3 transcript. I open one of the seal envelope with “OFFICIAL” mark on the edge of the seal. It had a transcript and another form about my SAT scores. However, I do not want my SAT to be sent along with transcript since I planning on retaking the SAT.
Even, if the opened envelope can be sealed again, will it be unofficial? How would they know if the envelope doesn’t really appear as if it was opened?
By the way, I’m applying as a dual enrolled student to UMD. They didn’t ask for my SAT scores just transcript and a few other supplements. </p>

<p>I’d recommend requesting another transcript and insisting that your SAT scores not be included.</p>

<p>Ditto</p>

<p>Tell your counselor that you opened the transcript, and you found the SAT scores in there that you specifically requested not be sent. Ask whether or not all of the copies also included the SAT scores, and if so, why they were included when you asked otherwise. Then, ask for at least one new sealed copy to replace the one that you opened. You can keep the open one for your own records.</p>

<p>Agreed, colleges probably won’t accept an opened one. At my school the secretaries sign over the seal on the envelope so anyone could easily tell if it had been opened. Ask for a transcript that includes only your grades and school activities.</p>
