Order a Transcript
An Official Transcript is a comprehensive document of a student’s academic record at the University of Kansas. The official transcript includes all courses attempted, grades earned, credit earned by exam, name of the school and number of credits transferred, earned degrees, majors, minors, tracks, milestones, certificates, and other notes the university has deemed are part of an official academic record. The name on the transcript appears as the legal name on university records.
Before you order:
- Verify Grades are Posted: If you are ordering at the end of a term verify in the Academic Records & Grades tile in Enroll & Pay that all grades are posted (if they are posted there, they will appear on the transcript). The transcript fee is non-refundable if you order a transcript prior to all grades posting.
Current students may order a transcript through MyHub, an online application that allows lifetime access to transcripts, enrollment certifications, and digital credentials. Former students may order transcripts through National Student Clearinghouse.
