Before you send it
- Write the admission number. The office finds the record by it, not by the name.
- Clear all dues and return library books first. Schools normally do not issue a TC while anything is pending.
- Ask the office how many days the TC takes and whether they need the application on their own form.
- Check every spelling and the date of birth on the TC before you leave the counter. Corrections later are slow.
What to attach
- Fee receipts or a no-dues slip, if the school asks
- Copy of the last report card (some schools ask)
Common questions
Who can apply for a TC?
For a school student, the parent or guardian applies. College students usually apply in their own name.
Is a TC needed for every new admission?
Most schools ask for it when a child joins from another school, especially in higher classes. Ask the new school what it needs before you apply.
This is a general format, written by us, to save you time. If the school or college has its own printed form, use that form. Last checked: 11 November 2026.
