How to Request an Official Transcript

A student may request an official UCM transcript online, in person, by mail, or by fax.  The Registrar’s Office cannot accept transcript requests by telephone or email.  The usual turn around time for transcript requests is 24 hours once your request is received.  A hold on your record prevents the release of transcripts. 

Cost for an Official Transcript

Mailed transcripts are $5 per copy.  Transcripts can be faxed for $10 per copy.  Payment can be made via check (made payable to UCM), cash, or credit card (Visa, Master Card, or Discover).  Transcripts will not be processed until payment is received. 

Instructions for Requesting a Transcript Online

The preferred and fastest method for requesting a transcript is online.  Online transcript requests require that you log into the Student Portal with your 700# (student number) and password.  (Note – students who attended prior to 1980 may not have a 700#.)

If you do not know your 700# click here.  If you have never logged into the student portal your default PIN is typically your 6-digit birthday (Example: October 15, 1980 = 101580).  During your first login, you will be asked to create a new PIN.  The computer HELP desk (660-543-4357) can assist you with trouble logging into the Student Portal.  If you are unable to login to the Student Portal you will have to submit your request in person, by mail or by fax.

  • Log into the Student Portal by clicking on the yellow flashing street sign at the top of the page, using your 700# and PIN.  (Don’t know your 700#?  See instructions above.)
  • After logging in go to the “Student” tab and choose “Student Records”.  Choose “Official Transcript” and follow the instructions on the page.


Instructions for Requesting a Transcript In Person

In person transcript requests can be made in the Office of the Registrar and Student Records (WDE 1000).  Students must present a photo ID.  In-person transcript services are available between the hours of 8:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m. during Fall and Spring semesters (August-May) and from 7:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. during Summer semester (May, June and July).

Frequently Asked Questions Regarding Transcripts


Can you request a transcript over the phone/ e-mail?

Requests cannot be taken by phone or e-mail in order to ensure confidentiality.

Can requests be faxed?

Can my mother stop by and pick up a copy of my transcript?

Someone can obtain a copy of a student's transcript only if the student provides them with written, dated, and signed permission for release of the transcript.  The person picking up the transcript must also provide photo ID.  Federal law prohibits release of grades or academic record information to anyone but the student without this special permission.  

I am a student at another school, but I took a course at UCM this summer.  How do I get my grade sent back to my school?

You may obtain an official copy of your University of Central Missouri transcript in the Office of the Registrar by showing your photo ID.  All other requests must be submitted in a letter with your signature (for more details see above instructions).

Is a copy of my high school transcript on file in the Registrar's Office?

No.  The UCM Registrar maintains only UCM academic records.  It is the student's responsibility to obtain transcripts from previously attended institutions.
