How to Order an Official Academic Transcript

Academic Transcripts may be ordered in the following ways:

1. Internet, over the World Wide Web at the National Student Clearinghouse for ease and convenience, using a credit card at the cost of $3 per transcript plus a $2.25 processing fee. To ensure confidentiality and to comply with federal regulations, a signature release form is required when ordering a transcript over the World Wide Web. For frequently asked questions regarding the Clearinghouse, please click on the link in their website.
    
2. In person, at the Registrar's Office, complete the Transcript Request Form provided and make payment by cash, credit card, check or money order in the amount of $3 at the Business Office (open 8:30am - 3pm).
