Frequently Asked Questions

  • Official transcripts bear the school’s official seal and are delivered to the receiver stating “Official.” This is the most commonly requested transcript type and is used for college admissions, scholarships, employment verification, DMV application, Social Security application, citizenship applications, etc…
  • Unofficial transcripts do not bear the school’s official seal and are not marked as “Official.” This type of transcript is generally used for personal records.

You will set up your Parchment account to request a copy of your high school transcript based on the last high school attended and graduation year/last year attended.
