Transcripts
| Q: |
How
long does it take to get a transcript? |
| A: |
Normally transcript requests received by mail or fax
are filled within 24-48 working hours of receipt.
Transcripts may be ordered and picked up at our front desk
(Home Economics Building, Magnolia Circle, Peabody) from 9:00
a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Monday through Friday. Currently enrolled
students may order transcripts through the AAI and pick them
up in our office on the same day. |
| Q: |
How
much does each transcript cost? |
| A: |
There
is no charge when ordering transcripts. |
| Q: |
Can
I order an unofficial transcript? |
| A: |
No.
All transcripts produced by the University Registrar's Office
are official documents, printed on
security paper and bearing the Registrar's signature and
the University seal. If you are a currently enrolled student,
you can access your academic record on the Web at:
http://www.vanderbilt.edu/aai |
| Q: |
I
ordered a transcript but discovered I had a financial hold. Once
I clear up my hold, how long
will it be before my transcript is released? |
| A: |
Within
24 hours of the time the Office of Student Accounts or the
VU
Loan Office enters your payment in their system, the Office
of the University Registrar is notified to release your transcript.
If you clear your hold and need to immediately pick
up a transcript you have ordered, you must ask the Student
Accounts or Student Loan Office to override your hold so that
your transcript can be released immediately. |
| Q: |
Can
I place an order for, or pick up a transcript for someone else? |
| A: |
Because
transcripts are confidential documents, only the person to whom
they belong can request them. However,
students can submit a signed request and indicate in the request
that their transcript(s) may be picked up by
a designated third party. |
