Transcript Request

Transcript Processing Delay: Due to a high volume of requests, there is a delay in the processing of all orders.

An official SUNY Empire State College academic transcript can only be issued at the request of the student/alumni. Transcripts include all coursework taken at SUNY Empire, both at the undergraduate and graduate level. For undergraduate students, the transcript will also include a degree program for degrees that are concurred and/or awarded. The degree plan includes a summary of transcript credit, credit by evaluation, and prior learning assessments.

Transcripts may be ordered online or by US mail. SUNY Empire does not accept transcript requests by phone, fax or email.

Transcripts will not be processed until all outstanding obligations to the College are cleared.

Delivery time varies depending on the ordering option selected. On average it takes 2-3 business days for electronic delivery, and 4-5 business days for print and mail delivery. Additionally, please be advised that order processing for student records dating prior to 2000 may be delayed.

Unofficial Transcripts: Unofficial copies of transcripts are available for students through their MyESC, Self-Service Banner. If login assistance is needed, contact our ITS Service Desk at 888-Help-009 or service-desk@esc.edu. The Office of the Registrar does not provide unofficial transcripts.
