Request, pay and collect your academic transcript

Your transcript includes units, results, credit points, course completion and/or conferral of award details, and all fails.


Request an official academic transcript

Before you request your academic transcript, ensure you have no outstanding fees. Your transcript request will not be processed until all debts/sanctions are cleared. Visit our how to pay page for more details.

Requests for academic transcripts are processed at the time the request is submitted - transcripts cannot be ordered in advance.

If you order your transcript before the result release date for a session, any units enrolled for that session will just be shown as "enrolled".

If you are expecting to complete your degree and wish for your transcript to show your qualification date, you need to wait for your completion letter or check your unofficial transcript to see if it's displayed there first, before you place your transcript request.
