What it is

A transfer certificate (TC), also called a school leaving certificate, is issued by a school when a student leaves. It records the student's name, parents' names, date of birth as in the admission register, the class last studied, the last exam and result, whether the student qualified for promotion, dues paid, conduct and the reason for leaving, and is signed by the principal. The new school uses it for admission. Under Section 5 of the Right to Education Act, a delay in producing a TC cannot be a reason to delay or deny admission to an elementary class. The fields here are the ones most CBSE and state board schools use; check your board's rules for anything extra.

Questions schools ask

What is a transfer certificate?

A transfer certificate (TC) is the document a school issues when a student leaves. It records the student's details, date of birth, last class and result, dues and conduct, and the next school uses it for admission.

Are a TC and a school leaving certificate the same?

In most schools, yes. Some states and boards call it a school leaving certificate, and many schools print both names. Choose the title you need in the maker.

Can a school refuse admission without a TC?

For elementary classes (1 to 8), Section 5 of the Right to Education Act says a delay in producing a transfer certificate cannot be a ground for delaying or denying admission. For higher classes, follow your board's and state's rules.

Is this TC format accepted by CBSE and state boards?

It uses the fields most CBSE and state board schools put on a TC. Boards can change their requirements, so check your board's latest circular and add anything it asks for in the remarks.

Can the TC be made from school records automatically?

Not in this free tool: you type the details. In Chalkbell, the TC is filled in from the student's record, including admission date, class history, attendance and fee dues, so the office only checks and prints it.
