The Kent State Office of International Affairs says that my transcript has a “consolidated mark sheet” and it cannot be accepted. What does this mean?

Kent State University has a rule that so-called consolidated mark sheets are not accepted. The consolidated format is a condensed summary format, from which some information may be removed, and many US universities do not accept this format. Consolidation normally removes Fails, Repeated Courses and Withdrawals from the record. US universities never use consolidation when issuing transcripts. The reason for the rule is that if consolidated mark sheets were accepted, it could give the affected international students an unfair advantage in GPA comparisons with US students and with international students from universities that issue transcripts in the normal format.
