Transcript Requests

An electronic transcript is a secure PDF document, which is meant to be accessed electronically. Your recipient will receive an email with instructions to access the transcript. Electronic transcripts are sent via our partnership with the National Student Clearinghouse.

Electronic transcripts are generally considered official when sent directly to your recipient. You should confirm with your recipient that they will accept electronic transcripts. 

Electronic transcripts are available for anyone who attended UIU in 1991 or later. If you attended UIU before 1991, you will need to request a mailed transcript because older format transcripts are not compatible with the electronic transcript system.

You may send a signed request via mail, email, or fax to request a paper copy of your transcript. However, if you want to order an electronic transcript, you must use the Transcript Ordering Center.
