Transcripts
To obtain copies of your transcripts, you must go through the Registrar's Office. The cost is $3.00 per copy sent to you. If you require a transcript sent directly to another institution, it will be sent to them at no cost to you. The Registrar's Office will require you to either come in and fill out an application, or simply send your request in writing (no e-mails) to:
Transfer students
Undergraduate transfer applicants
You must have your high school send us official transcripts of your secondary schoolwork and evidence of graduation or the equivalent. We also need official transcripts of all of your previous college work. These records are needed to complete the admission process and to assist our faculty committee in their review of your application and in their determination of year-level placement.
