Transcripts

Processing a transcript request takes at least five business days.

The CUNY BA/BS Program maintains your official undergraduate academic record. If you need an official transcript, you must put your request in writing to the attention of the Registrar. Be sure to include your name, signature, social security number, and the name/address of the intended recipient. Faxed requests will only be accepted for a CUNY destination and must bear your signature.

Official transcripts are mailed directly to the institution or employer requesting them. Or, you can pick up the transcript (in a sealed envelope) from our Office. If you are requesting an official transcript to be sent to your home address, you must indicate the name of the institution or employer that is requesting your transcript. There is a $7 processing fee for all transcripts being sent to non-CUNY recipients. Payment may be made by check or money order payable to CUNY BA Program or in cash (exact amount) if request is made in person.

Please note that some graduate schools, especially the professional schools (e.g., medical and law schools), will require you to submit not only the CUNY Baccalaureate Program transcript, which shows that you earned the degree, but also original transcripts from every CUNY and non-CUNY college you attended before and during the CUNY BA/BS Program, even though those credits are reflected on the CUNY BA transcript. Students are expected to find out exactly what documents graduate schools require for admission.

If your employer only needs to verify your graduation date and degree, he/she may call the Program Registrar at 212.817.8227 (Monday–Friday, 9 a.m.–5 p.m.).
