Special Announcement: Effective Monday, October 1, our transcript fee will increase from $5 to $10. There are no updates to our standard delivery charges.

Also, due to system updates, Fall 2018 term courses will not appear as in-progress on the official transcript until November. In-progress courses can be found though your Student Profile page, under the Academic Transcript link. If you require an official document with in-progress courses, a verification request will need to be completed and sent to RegistrarsOffice@esc.edu

Requesting Your SUNY Empire State College Transcript

An official SUNY Empire State College transcript can only be issued at the request of the student/alumni. Transcripts cannot be issued for students/alumni who have holds on their records.

SUNY Empire State College Official Transcripts may be ordered online. Official transcripts may also be ordered by US mail or in person.

Note: At this time, we do not provide unofficial transcripts. The Office of the Registrar recommends that official transcripts be requested. The student/alumnus in receipt of a transcript may choose to copy the document(s) for their own purposes. Once the seal on the official transcript is broken most agencies will deem the document unofficial. Students/alumni can then make copies or scan to their computer as necessary.
