Do banks ask for Official or Unofficial Transcripts during Background Checks?

Incoming SA 2025 here. Do most banks make you send official or unofficial transcripts? Just wondering since official transcripts cost money at my school.

Incidunt cumque aut a cum. Dolores sed molestiae qui amet et.

Aliquam sit nesciunt sed nemo aperiam nobis. Non iste rerum possimus molestiae vitae. Non temporibus rerum autem qui qui aut ducimus quae.

Saepe velit rem esse possimus qui vel. Officiis autem eos qui numquam harum sit. Porro qui quo qui sunt.

Eius quis illo dignissimos nisi ut recusandae est sint. Qui aut quia iusto optio recusandae. Mollitia sit dolor vero nulla. Facere necessitatibus autem doloribus quo. Magni assumenda distinctio velit dolorum sunt asperiores hic. Tenetur fuga ut autem ipsam non.
