Student records are confidential and governed
by the FERPA (Family Educational Rights and
Privacy Act) law. Transcripts are issued only at
the authorized request of the student or other
parties whom are authorized by a signed FERPA
consent. Transcript Requests will be processed
when an authorized request is received in the
Office of the Registrar. All written requests require
the requestor’s signature. Telephone and E-mail
requests are not accepted.
Please allow 2 - 4 business days for processing.
A transcript is a complete copy of the student’s
academic record. Official transcripts bear the
signature of the University Registrar. Transcripts
mailed directly to the student are “Sealed” and
bear a stamp indicating “Official Transcript Issued
to student in a sealed envelope”. Students who
request their transcript in person can request it
unsealed in which case the stamp will indicate
“Official Transcript Issued to student”. Despite the
seal being present on the transcript many
institutions will require transcripts be mailed
directly from Saint Louis University to ensure their
authenticity.
Transcripts may be faxed, mailed, or both per the
request of the student. Please be aware the
receiving fax machine may not be located in a
secure area, thereby challenging the
confidentiality of the record. A faxed copy,
when received, will have “copy” numerous times
imbedded on the copy received. The party
receiving the faxed copy determines whether or
not they will accept is as official.
Saint Louis University is unable to release
transcripts received from other colleges or
Universities. Transcripts from other institutions must
be obtained from the originating institution.
