Ordering Your Transcript
Official Transcripts
An official SUNY Empire academic transcript is your comprehensive academic record, including all undergraduate and graduate coursework completed at the university. For awarded degrees, it also includes your degree program details, advanced standing credits (transfer credits, credit by evaluation, and prior learning assessments), and any applicable annotations.
You can order official transcripts online or by mail. Requests cannot be processed by phone, fax, or email. Delivery times may vary: electronic transcripts typically arrive within 2-3 business days, while mailed transcripts may take 4-5 business days. Records prior to 2000 may require additional processing time.
Planning to use your transcript abroad? You may need an apostille or authentication to certify its authenticity. We provides these services for transcripts and diplomas, ensuring they meet international requirements. Check the specific requirements of your destination country to determine whether an apostille or authentication is needed.
