Transcript Orders

The National Student Clearinghouse provides an online ordering service for University of Chicago students and alumni. Current students may order their transcripts through cMore, but alumni and former students should use the Clearinghouse's secure site.

NEW

Students and alumni (students after Summer, 1979) have a new transcript delivery option: Electronic PDF. Using the internet, this option delivers the official transcript within minutes after processing, if submitted between 8 AM & 3 PM, week days, avoiding extra delivery charges for express mail. As the delivery option implies, the official transcript is formatted in PDF, and digitally signed, ensuring authenticity and security. The recipient is notified by e-mail to pick up the document from a secure web site administered by the University’s agent, National Student Clearinghouse.

Ordering Details

Transcripts may be ordered in three ways:

  1. By a secured internet transaction over the world wide web:
    • Anyone with an active CNET ID (all current students and anyone who left the university or graduated after Autumn Quarter 2005) should use the cMore site: http://cmore.uchicago.edu/. (no charge if you've paid the Lifetime Transcript Fee, otherwise $12 per transcript)


    • Alumni or former students (only) without an active CNET ID must use the National Student Clearinghouse's secure site, and may opt to pay the Lifetime Transcript fee or $12 per transcript via credit card.


  2. In person in the Office of the University Registrar, at a cost of $12 per transcript via cash, check or credit card. (Charges apply to alumni or former students only.)

  3. By mail, sending a signed request and enclosing a check in the amount of $12 per transcript via check. (Charges apply to alumni or former students only.)
