Your transcript is a history of coursework attempted at an institution, grades and GPA received, and any degrees awarded. Transcripts are often used to apply or transfer to an institution, provide coursework verification for employment, or for personal records.

Two types of transcripts can be be requested:

  • Official transcripts are transcripts produced, certified, and signed by the Office of the Registrar. These are often used during transfers or in situations requiring UNLV to certify your academic records. These must be requested from the Office of the Registrar, generally have a cost associated, and take some time to process.
  • Unofficial transcripts provide the same information as an official transcript, except they are not certified. These are often used for personal records or in situations where the receiving party will accept a non-certified copy. These can be requested self-service though MyUNLV at any time and are available for immediate download.

Official Transcripts

Official transcripts are certified from the Office of the Registrar and must be requested online. There generally is a cost associated with the request and it will take some time to process. Once requested, the Registrar will notify you when the records are ready for pickup or have been sent.

Unofficial Transcripts

Unofficial transcripts provide the same information as an official transcript, except they are not certified. These can be requested and downloaded on demand from MyUNLV.

Information on how to download unofficial transcripts can be found from the Office of the Registrar's Student Resources and selecting Unofficial Transcripts.
