Now Introducing - Electronic Transcripts
The Fastest Way to Send an Official Transcript!
The term E-Transcript refers to any transcript that is delivered to the recipient in an electronic format instead of being printed and mailed to the recipient. The availability of specific E-Transcript delivery options depends on the individual institution. This means that some institutions may offer one or more options for delivering your transcript electronically and other institutions may not offer any electronic options.
What does "PDF Delivered Electronically to Recipient" mean?
When you see this
option on the order screen it means that the school from which you are ordering
your transcript is capable of delivering transcripts in a PDF file format and
the school you have selected to receive the transcript is participating in the
Credentials' TranscriptsNetwork™ and is able to receive PDF transcripts
electronically from us.
What does "PDF Downloaded by Recipient" mean?
When you see this option on the screen it means that your transcript will be created as a PDF document and we will then notify the intended recipient that it is ready to be downloaded. This method is generally used when you have designated an individual or other non-educational institution who is not a participant in our network as the recipient.
This option represents one of the fastest methods for delivering your transcript to the receiving institution. Using this option normally means that once the sending school has completed the processing of your order, it will be delivered much faster to the receiving institution. In addition, we will send you an email confirming the delivery so you will know immediately that your transcript has been received. With traditional "First-Class Mail", there is no way to confirm that your transcript has been received.
**Please be advised that if your transcript is being
sent internationally, the BEST method for delivery is International Federal
Express. If First Class Mail is the chosen method; delivery may take 3-4 weeks
and no package tracking will be provided

General Transcript Information
What is a transcript?
A transcript is a document that contains all of a students academic achievements at the University of Wisconsin-Stout. Transcripts are typically sent to employers, graduate school programs, and other academic institutions to reflect a students academic achievement.
Instances in which transcripts are commonly requested:
A student transferring to another college will typically need to send an official transcript to the new institution as proof of enrollment and as an indicator of academic ability.
Students often request official transcripts to be given to employers alongside a resume and other job application paperwork.
Unofficial transcripts do not fulfill the requirements of most schools and employers, and are often requested for personal student records. When requesting that an unofficial transcript be mailed, please include a postage-paid, self-addressed envelope.
Official Transcripts
An official transcript is printed on security paper and bears the signature of the Registrar.
Official transcripts may be mailed.
Official transcripts cannot be issued to students with delinquent accounts.
A minimum of 24 business hours is required for processing requests.

Note: All transcripts sent to the students are
stamped "issued to student". Not all institutions (colleges, employers,

receiving institution if transcripts need to be sent directly from
