SAVE TIME!! - Order Online
NMU has partnered with the National Student Clearinghouse to provide official transcript ordering online. NMU alumni and students can order transcripts online anytime using a major credit card. The advantages of using the online service are the speed of delivery and e-mail notifications indicating processing status. Students can order an electronic PDF transcript or a paper transcript online. Electronic PDF's are automated and usually processed and sent to a designated email account in about 30 minutes or less. Any student/former student/alumni may submit a transcript request online, regardless of start date.
*Note: Receiving an emailed electronic PDF copy requires a start date of Fall 1993 or later. For attendance prior to Fall 1993, alumni can still request their transcript online and NMU will mail a paper copy.
August Graduates
Check the Hold for Degree Posting option if you want to wait for your transcript to state that you have graduated. (Currently available for August graduates only). May 2019 degrees are now posted and listed on the graduates transcript.
Degree posting requires a verification process that takes extra time after grades are posted to appear on a transcript. To check and see if your degree has been posted to your transcript - log onto My.NMU, go to the Student Services tab and go to the Unofficial Transcript link. When you request a transcript, you may request one of the following:
-
Send transcript now
-
Send after degree is posted to transcript
AMCAS, LSAC Transcript Orders
Click on this link for directions on how to submit by Electronic Exchange (ETX).
Former Students
Click on this link: "Request a Transcript Online" and read the information! The green start button is below. The online form will walk you through placing the order, including delivery options and fees. During the order, you will have the option to attach a transcript matching form if needed, for institutions such as PharmCAS, PTCAS, etc.
You can order as many transcripts as you like in a single session. Each address must be submitted as a separate request. Order status and updates will be emailed to you. You can also track your order online.
Note: You will be required to sign a release online during the process using a computer mouse. At this time, the signature feature does not work using a smart phone or a tablet. If you do not submit your signature online, you will receive an email notification and be required to download the signature form that you must fax to NSC before your order is processed. Also, if you are experiencing technical difficulties with viewing or submitting transcript order information on the NSC site, using a different web browser will sometimes solve the problem [i.e. use Chrome, FireFox, etc. instead of Explorer].
Current Students
To order an official transcript(s), log into My.NMU. Click on the Student Services tab, then click the Order/Track Transcript link. Once you are at the NSC web site, select the Transcript Ordering/Tracking link at the bottom of the page.
Transferring?
If you pre-enrolled for the fall/winter semester at NMU, those courses will appear on your transcript. You will be required to provide an additional transcript to your new school once those courses are completed or dropped.
Financial/Laptop Holds
If you have a financial or laptop hold, your transcripts will not be released. Please contact the Student Service Center at 906-227-1221 or log into the NMU e-bill payment center.
Order by Mail
If you do not have online access, you can use a paper form and order by mail, click on the Request Forms link on the right side of this page. Because mailing a form to NMU is dependent on the U.S.Postal Service mail and campus mail distribution and pickup, please consider using the online option if time is a factor. If you need your transcript quickly use the online service mentioned above.
All paper requests must include: name, NMU IN (or S.S.# for non-students), signature, transcript fee and the exact address where the transcript is to be sent. Each official transcript is requested by mail is $5 per copy. First class postage is included in the transcript fee. A check or money order made out to NMU must be included with all requests received by mail. You can also drop off the form at the Student Service Center. Transcript requests that do not include correct fees will not be processed and returned to sender.
Transcripts and transcript payments cannot be made by phone, e-mail, from friends, your spouse or relatives in accordance with The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974. There are no exceptions to this policy.
If you are currently living outside the United States, stationed abroad in the military, or if you have an emergency situation, please use the online site to request your transcript.
Because of personal security and other concerns, NMU cannot e-mail, scan or fax transcripts.
If you have further questions, please review information available on the transcript links on the right sidebar of this web page. If you have further questions, please e-mail: tscript@nmu.edu.
