TRANSCRIPT FEE

The University will only release transcripts to students who have met all their financial obligations. The first copy is provided free. Additional copies may be obtained at $15 per copy. Students may obtain copies of their transcripts in one hour when necessary by paying a special service charge of $20 in addition to transcript fees. (Note: The service charge is assessed per request, not per transcript. Example: If a student needs three transcripts and requests one-hour service, the total charges will be $65 ($45 for three transcripts plus $20 service charge.)

Students who are waiting for financial aid or have not yet paid for their tuition and fees are still financially obligated by the above regulations.
