Do I need a transcript to re-enter the US along with my F1 visa and I-20 form?

Accepted answer

No, you don't need a transcript. Here is the list of the requirements from the US Immigration and Customs Enforcement website:

  1. A Form I-20, endorsed for travel and signed by your DSO
  2. You have been out of the United States for less than five months
  3. A current passport valid for at least six months after the date of your reentry or, if you are from one of the countries listed below, a passport that is current through the date of entry
  4. A valid, current visa or you traveled to contiguous country or adjacent island for less than thirty days
  5. Financial information showing proof of necessary funds to cover tuition and living expenses

If you are from a visa exempt country, you do not need a visa to reenter the United States from the western hemisphere, but make sure that you present your I-20 to be admitted as an F-1 student and not a visitor.
