Academic Transcripts

A Drexel University transcript contains a student's entire academic history as well as degree conferral information. All Drexel University transcripts issued from Drexel Central are official and contain the school's seal on each page of the document. A transcript will contain the following information:

  • Name, university ID number
  • Program and Major course of study, degree title and conferral date.
  • A complete listing of all courses (by term and date) taken at the university with a distinction made between Undergraduate and Graduate level courses.
  • A listing of all grades (by course) as well as a term Grade Point Average and cumulative Grade Point Average.
  • Number of credits per course, term, and cumulative amount.

Official Transcripts

Drexel students and alumni are able to order copies of their official academic transcripts via the National Student Clearinghouse. Transcripts are available in two formats:

  • PDF – Secure electronic PDFs can be emailed to selected email addresses.
  • Paper – Paper transcripts can be mailed to an address specified by the student or picked up in person at Drexel Central.

The fee associated with ordering PDF transcripts is $20.25. The fee associated with paper transcripts is $15 per transcript, with a service fee of $5.25 per order. The $5.25 is only charged once per order, and not per transcript. Credit/debit card payment must be made via the National Student Clearinghouse for a transcript request to be processed. There is an additional charge for expedited paper transcript orders. Fees for expedited paper transcript orders are published on the transcript ordering website. Your card will only be charged after your order has been completed.

The cutoff for all Expedited (UPS) Transcript requests is at 12 p.m. of the order date. All Expedited Transcript requests received after 12 p.m. will be processed the following business day. Requests received after 12 p.m. on Fridays will be processed the following Monday.

Transcript orders that are placed during national holidays, or in cases of weather related university closure, will be processed when the University reopens for business operations.

Order updates will be emailed to you. You can also track your order online using your email address and order number.

There is a 90-day expiration time frame for all PDF transcript orders. The electronic certificate to certify the PDF as being an official transcript will inactive 90 days after the original order date.

Please note: if you have a hold or holds on your student record, you can still submit a transcript request. You must resolve the hold(s) within 30 days of your request, otherwise your transcript order will be cancelled. As long as your hold(s) is resolved within those 30 days, your transcript will be processed according to the order type and delivery time frame you selected. The fee for your transcript order will be charged to your payment account once the order is processed.
