How to order your transcript
It’s easy to request a transcript online if:
- You’re a current or recently enrolled student
- You attended IU in 1965 or later
You should order using our online/signature request system instead if:
- You attended IU before 1965
- You have forms or documents that must be attached to your transcript
- You need a transcript faxed to you or to a third party
- You are a high school student enrolled through the Advanced College Project only
- You are requesting a transcript for someone else
- You would prefer not to order online
Delivery options
You have several options for transcript delivery. Note that some records may require a one-time validation before a transcript can be submitted. This can take up to one business day to finalize.
Note that this option is not available for students who last attended IU before 1965.
