The Registrar's Office needs your signature as authorization to release your academic record. Please allow 3 working days for your request to be processed.
Types of Transcripts
- Official
- These transcripts are sent directly to a 3rd party (such as an institution or prospective employer) from Alma College.
- Issued through Student
- These transcripts (with the Registrar's Office seal) are sent to the student in a sealed envelope. Breaking the envelope seal will invalidate the official transcript. This type of transcript may not be considered official by all receiving parties.
- Unofficial
- These transcripts are issued with a "copy only" stamp on them. They are not assured by Alma College as being an official, unaltered version of the transcript.
