Outgoing Transcripts Information

How to Order a Transcript

Transcripts must be requested in person or by mail (student's signature required). Orders are not accepted by telephone, fax, or email. When ordering transcripts in person, please be sure to bring photo ID. Transcript requests will be returned if you owe any financial or administrative obligation to the university.

We issue only official Sacramento State transcripts. Transcripts released to students will be stamped "Released to Student" and sealed in separate envelopes. Current processing time is a minimum of 7 business days after the request is opened.
