An official transcript is printed on official transcript paper and signed by a school official. If you are requesting a transcript for another academic institution, you will always want to request an official transcript. Unofficial transcript requests should only be made for personal records, and are free. Official transcripts are $5.00 each, payable by cash, check, or credit card through our website. Please allow 5-7 days for processing; additional time may be necessary at the beginning or end of a term. No transcript will be released if financial obligations to the College have not been satisfied.
