Transcripts

How to order an official transcript

The University defines an official transcript as including all aspects of the student's academic coursework at Detroit Mercy. Undergraduate, graduate and professional level coursework is included on the official University transcript. The University does not release portions of the student's transcript and releases the full and complete document only.

Please note that transcripts mailed directly to you will say "Issued to Student" and may not be considered as official by a third party.

Transcripts are $10.00 and can be ordered in a variety of ways below:

    Order Online

    Transcripts can be ordered online at the National Student Clearinghouse, using a credit card. University of Detroit Mercy has authorized the National Student Clearinghouse to provide transcript ordering via the web. This service is available to current students and alumni 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. 

    Special note for the holidays: Online transcript requests submitted while we are closed for any holiday throughout the year will be processed when the office re-opens. 

    You can order as many transcripts as you like in a single session using any major credit card. Your card will only be charged after your order has been completed. Order updates will be emailed to you. You can also track your order online using your email address and order number.

    Your signed consent may be required to fulfill your transcript order. For your convenience, a consent form will be generated for your order that you can sign and send via fax, mail or as a scanned email attachment to the Clearinghouse. You can also electronically provide your signature. The signature must be on file with NSC before orders are processed. Order updates will be emailed to you throughout the process.

    It is possible to add an attachment to your order placed through the Clearinghouse. Please ONLY include attachments that are required to accompany the transcript and are noted on the document as such. Other attachments cannot be included with the transcript.

    There is an option to have your transcript sent electronically to yourself or to a third party when you order your transcript through the Clearinghouse. This may save time instead of having a transcript mailed once it is processed in our office. You will need to provide an email address where the transcript needs to be sent and the receiver must be willing to accept electronic transcripts from you. There is an additional charge for this service. This option is only available to students who attended University of Detroit Mercy since 1990 and use the National Student Clearinghouse site to place the transcript order. E-transcripts are not available for the former University of Detroit or Mercy College of Detroit transcript records because those records do not exist in an electronic format. You are still able to place your order using the online service, you will just need to provide a physical mailing address instead of email address. 

    If you need help or have questions about the Clearinghouse's transcript ordering service, contact 703-742-7791 or transcripts@studentclearinghouse.org.
