UNDERGRADUATE OR GRADUATE TRANSCRIPTS

Undergraduate and Graduate Transcripts are delivered electronically, by postal delivery, campus mail or by student pick-up. All financial, disciplinary and registrar obligations (i.e., Transcript Holds) must be cleared before any transcript request will be honored. Requests are normally processed within two business days of receipt but may take up to five days during peak periods (beginning and end of each semester).

  • All transcripts released by Villanova, both paper and electronic, are official and may be verified by the Office of the Registrar or College of Professional Studies.  
  • Due to Federal law, requests CANNOT be processed without a legal signature or secured authorization. Therefore, email and telephone requests cannot be honored.
  • Villanova does not issue "unofficial" transcripts.
  • Villanova University will not, under any circumstances, send transcripts via fax or email.  
  • The University issues academic transcripts only for academic work completed at Villanova University. Requests for transcripts of courses taken at other institutions must be directed to those institutions, including international institutions where study-abroad work was completed and credits transferred to Villanova.
  • Evaluative information such as courses completed, grades earned, etc. cannot be issued to an outside party unless the student/former student has given the Registrar written permission to release this information to that party. The Registrar may, however, disclose "directory information" as allowed under The Family Education Rights & Privacy Act (FERPA) without special permission. A list of the directory information can be reviewed at the Disclosure of Student Records web page.
  • National Student Clearinghouse has been granted the authority to deliver all transcripts requested on behalf of Villanova University and respond to inquiries regarding the transactions. The PDF transcript that is produced using this service contains identical information as the printed transcript and can be certified as unaltered by uploading the file to the company's website that is provided during the delivery process.
