Transcripts and Academic Information

An official transcript is a comprehensive record of your academic progress, including transfer courses, credit earned by exam and earned degrees. Your name appears on your official transcript as it appears on your university record. Official transcripts include the university seal and signature of the registrar.

Student academic records are classified as confidential and may be released only with the student’s written authorization and signature, in accordance with the Public Information Act and the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974.

Official transcripts cannot be released to students who have not met their financial obligations to the university.

Transcript Request Options

Transcripts may not be requested by phone or email (without a signed PDF Transcript Request form/transcript request information page attached) and are not issued to students who have not met their financial obligations to the university. All requests are generally processed within two working days. There is no fee for official transcripts ordered utilizing options 1 through 4. Additionally, transcripts requested using options 1 through 4 cannot be returned or issued by fax or email. For emailed PDF transcripts, see the National Student Clearinghouse (NSC) option (5). NSC transcript services require a nominal fee for processing.

OPTION 5: ELECTRONIC REQUEST VIA THE NATIONAL STUDENT CLEARINGHOUSE

St. Edward’s University has authorized the National Student Clearinghouse to provide transcript ordering via the web. Transcripts may be requested 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Transcript requests submitted on the weekends, or while the university is closed, will be processed in the order received when the university resumes business hours.

Please be aware that the National Student Clearinghouse only handles your transcript order. The clearinghouse does not have access to your academic record and does not print your transcript.

This allows us to better serve the needs of our current students and alumni in the following ways:

  • Convenient 24/7 ordering access, including order status checks
  • Ability to email PDF transcript(s) to recipient(s)
  • Faster service due to reduced processing time
  • Secure transactions
  • Automatic order updates via email
  • Online order tracking
  • Ability to order multiple transcripts for multiple recipients in one order
  • Ability to scan and upload any attachments that need to accompany your transcript

This service requires a nominal fee and should only be used when our free service options do not suit your needs.

Note for students/alumni ordering transcripts: we are listed on the National Student Clearinghouse website as St Edwards University (no punctuation).
