Transcript Request For Previous Colleges

Sending college transcripts whether it's due to a move, going from a two-year college to a four-year or applying to grad school is not a difficult process. College transcript requests occur most often when transferring colleges. The transcripts detail all the classes taken at that school, your grades and dates of attendance. It is important to put the correct information in your request so it is processed quickly.


Instructions


1. Locate the Registrar's Office at all of the colleges you previously attended. Contact information is on the college website or directory assistance.


2. Visit the college registrar if you live close to the school. Make your request for an official transcript in person, show identification and pay any fees required.


3. Search the college's website for the link to the registrar's office for directions to make a request online. Many have a link on the home page to request your official transcripts. Enter accurate information and pay any fees requested to have your transcripts sent to the destination you indicate. If an online form is not available, manual methods of requesting transcripts are indicated.


4. Print a transcript request from the college's website or have a copy of the request faxed to you. Fill in the requested information, sign the form and mail or fax it back to the school. Upon receipt of the request, the school sends out your college transcripts to the address indicated.
