Question / Issue
How can I get a transcript?

Answer / Solution

Unofficial transcripts can be obtained either online or in person.

  • Unofficial copies of the record are available at all One Stop Service Centers.
  • Students must present a picture ID (U of MN ID card, driver's license, passport, etc.)
  • Students may receive two copies per day.
  • There is no charge for this service.

Official transcript service is available by fax, mail, on the web (Online Request for Official Transcript or Request for Official Transcript - paper form), or in-person at any of the One Stop Student Services centers during regular business hours. Because of confidentiality concerns, telephone requests cannot be honored. Former students or graduates of the University of Minnesota may access the University's Request for Official Transcript system and other secured Web sites by activating your University Internet ID and password.  To activate your Internet ID and password, contact the Technology Helpline at 612-301-4357.
