Transfer Certificate Request Letter
The short answer
A transfer certificate is issued when you leave a college. The letter should say who you are, which course and year you are leaving, why, and that your dues are cleared. Take the no-dues slips from the library and accounts office along with it. The template covers this.
When you are leaving the college or moving to another one.
Leave empty for “The Principal”. Use the Head of Department or the Dean if that is who signs.

Frequently asked questions
Do I get the original marksheets with it?
Original documents are handled by the college's rules, and some return them only at the end of the course. Ask the office exactly which documents come back.
Can I ask for the transfer certificate before leaving?
Colleges usually issue it only once you formally leave. Ask for the process early so that nothing delays your admission elsewhere.
