Transcript Request Information

A transcript is a certified, official copy of your permanent academic record.  One free transcript is provided for all students when needed.  All subsequent requests come at a cost.

Please Note:

• We will not release any records without a handwritten signature.
• No one else may pick up your transcript without your written permission. We must have your authorization in writing, identifying the person, and your signature.
• A transcript sent directly to the student is marked "Issued to Student" unless you specify that you need it in a sealed envelope.Turnaround time after receipt of the request is generally 2-5 days.
• Transcripts will not be sent if there is any outstanding financial obligation to Sterling College account or if your student loans are in default.
• When submitting a request by fax or email, make sure to include your phone number and payment information.

Due to Kansas sales tax regulations, we now need to charge 8.3% sales tax for transcripts under the following conditions:

• If you are a former student, living in Kansas and have previously received a transcript. The current transcript fee is $3.00 plus $0.25 for Kansas sales tax for a total of $3.25 per transcript.

This tax does not apply to out-of-state residents and currently enrolled students.

Starting July 1, the cost of a transcript will increase to $6.50 (includes tax), for former students living in Kansas, and $6.00 for out-of-state residents and currently enrolled students.
