Transcripts

In addition to traditional paper transcripts, Oakland University offers expedited official electronic transcripts. That means you can get an eTranscript the same day you request it — even on weekends and holidays.


eTranscripts are available online through the National Student Clearinghouse, which charges $4 for processing. This charge is paid directly to the National Student Clearinghouse, not OU.

Remember, official transcripts will not be provided if you have outstanding financial obligations. The Registrar’s Office continues to produce and mail paper transcripts free of charge. Requests for transcripts cannot be accepted via phone.

How long does it take for an etranscript to be received?

Typically, an etranscript will be sent to a recipient within 1 hour.  

If your order information does not match our academic record of the student, it may take an additional 1-2 business days for manual verification.  

If you are submitted attachments with your order, it may take 1-2 business days to manually verify the attached documents.  The National Student Clearinghouse will email the student updates on the progress of the order from receipt of order to sending of transcript.

"Copy" is listed on my transcript, I thought this was official?

The etranscript is an official transcript when received directly from the National Student Clearinghouse.  If the etranscript is printed, a copy watermark is displayed in the background.  This is also true if an institution does not directly import the email into their student information system and prints it for their processing.  If further verification is needed, please contact Registrar Services at (248) 370-3450 or regservices@oakland.edu.

I attended prior to 1987, may I order an etranscript?

Thank you for using this new service.  Unfortunately, these records typically need to be generated from the archive.  At this time, you cannot order an etranscript.  Please submit the Transcript Request Form via mail or email
