About Transcripts

Transcripts are the official and comprehensive records of a student’s academic work, including all coursework, grades, programs, and awarded credentials and honors.

Official Transcript Release Policy

The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974 (FERPA) requires that all requests for transcripts must be authorized by the individual to whom the record belongs, either in writing or through a secure electronic authorization.

Methods of Request

You can use one of three methods to order your UNE official transcript.

Online (recommended for fastest service)
