Requests for transcripts cannot be made by email or by phone.
A HOLD on your record prevents the release of transcripts.
Transcripts are not issued to individuals who have Past Due financial obligations, Assessment Holds or an incomplete Admissions file.
Normal processing time is 1-2 working days. Allow time for receipt by mail.
Allow additional time during peak periods at the beginning and end of a semester as well as during the Holiday Season in mid-December through mid-January.
If requesting a faxed transcript, students must verify that a faxed transcript will be accepted as official by the recipient before submitting their request. If a paper copy is required after the faxed transcript has been sent, the student must submit a new transcript request.
If an incorrect address is provided, the student is responsible for ordering a new transcript.
