Transcripts
Current students and alumni may now order electronic transcripts in pdf format.
See Electronic Transcript Information for Students and Alumni for more information. Information about paper transcripts follows below.
Only official transcripts are available through the University Registrar. Each transcript has the signature of the Registrar and Stanford University seal. Envelopes are not signed or sealed (stamped) across the flap. If you require forms to be attached to the transcript you can attach a document in our Document Ordering portal. All transcripts are separately packaged.
- All paper transcripts are mailed
- We do not fax transcripts (faxed transcripts are not official and the University cannot ensure confidentiality for any faxed documents)
