Additional Information
The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974 (FERPA) requires that all transcript requests received by mail or fax be signed and dated by the person to whom the record belongs. Telephone and email requests CANNOT be accepted. There is no fee for transcripts, however there is a limit of ten transcripts per request.
Upon receipt of the request, official transcripts are normally mailed within three business days.
Unofficial Transcripts
Current students may obtain an unofficial transcript through the Student Center in MaineStreet by selecting “Transcript: View Unofficial” in the “other academic…” drop down box shown under the “Academics” area. Unofficial transcripts may also be requested from the Office of Student Records using the same request process as for the official transcript. Unofficial transcripts can be faxed if a return fax number is provided.
University policy prohibits issuing transcripts (official or unofficial) to any student indebted to the University. The issuance of partial transcripts is also prohibited.
