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 within the U.S. for $10 per copy.  Transcripts cannot be faxed outside the U.S. Faxed transcripts are not official. 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. Transcripts sent to UCM departments/offices for use on campus are free of charge.

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 MyCentral with your 700# (student number) and password.  (Note –If you graduated or attended UCM before 1981 you cannot use our online transcript system. Please see the instructions below for mailing or faxing your request.)

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 MyCentral.  If you are unable to login to MyCentral you will have to submit your request in person, by mail or by fax.

Log into MyCentral using your 700# and PIN.  (Don’t know your 700#?  See instructions above.) After logging in go to the “Student Services ” tab and choose “UCM Student Records”.  Choose “Official Transcript” and follow the instructions on the page. Please be sure that you complete your online request by clicking the message "To finalize your request click here" that appears in red at the bottom of the page. You should receive two confirmation emails: 1) confirmation of your transcript request and 2) confirmation of your payment. If you do not receive these two emails please call the Registrar's Office as soon as possible (660-543-4914). If you experience a problem submitting your online request, please do not submit again. Call our office at 660-543-4914 during regular business hours. If you are unable to login to MyCentral, you will have to submit your request in person, by mail, or by fax using the transcript request form.

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?

Yes, you can fax your request to 660-543-8400.  Transcripts not picked up in person can be faxed or mailed.  Mailed transcripts are $5 per copy. They can be faxed within the U.S. for $10 per copy.  Faxed transcripts are not official. Transcripts cannot be faxed overseas.

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. See instructions above to request a transcript online, by mail, or by fax.

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.
