Request Transcripts

You can now order transcripts electronically online via our partners at Parchment. This service allows students and alumni to order official electronic PDF transcripts via the web at any time, with worldwide delivery in about an hour.

The electronic/PDF transcript option offers online order tracking—with the time, date, and name of the person who received your records. No need to pay for FedEx!

All transcripts from 1980 to the present can be delivered in an electronic/PDF format.

PDF transcripts viewed electronically are recognized as official documents. A printed copy of a PDF transcript will be considered “unofficial” and will display the words “PRINTED COPY” on all pages of the PDF.
