School of Law Policy<\/h2>\n

Both official and unofficial transcripts contain all academic information about a student, such as classes, grades, grade point average (GPA), and degree awarded. Grades will appear for terms in which a student is officially registered.<\/p>\n

Boston University School of Law has partnered with Parchment, one of the industry leaders in education credentials technology, to offer online transcript ordering and electronic transcript delivery.<\/strong><\/p>\n

We now\u00a0require all alumni and former and current students to submit requests for electronic transcripts via Parchment. We encourage requests for official printed transcripts to be submitted via Parchment as well. We do not accept email or fax requests for official transcripts. Mail orders (payable by check) will continue to be accepted.<\/p>\n

Current students<\/strong> may now access\u00a0transcripts through the Parchment storefront<\/a>. Alumni and former students<\/strong> may create an account<\/a> at the BU Law storefront on the Parchment site. Graduates from other non-law BU programs must log in via the MyBU Student Portal<\/a>\u00a0to request their non-law transcript.<\/p>\n

Electronic Transcripts (eTranscripts)<\/h3>\n

Official electronic transcripts must be ordered through Parchment and are delivered to any valid email address via secure certified PDF. The recipient is notified by email to download the electronic PDF transcript from a secure website. You have the option of attaching files to the transcript order; you will need to upload with your order an electronic version of the document that needs to be included. Electronic transcripts are\u00a0$4<\/strong>\u00a0per official copy and\u00a0$1\u00a0<\/strong>per attachment, payable by credit card only. Before selecting this option, it is recommended that you check with the transcript recipient to confirm they accept electronic transcript delivery. Note that many government offices and military sites will not be able to open PDF transcripts from Parchment. We suggest that paper transcripts be sent to any recipient with a .gov email address.<\/p>\n

Note that we do not issue unofficial electronic transcripts.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Paper Delivery<\/h3>\n

Official printed paper transcripts may also be ordered via Parchment for delivery by USPS first class mail or express shipping. Printed transcripts are\u00a0$6<\/strong>\u00a0per official copy, payable by credit card only. If you would like an attachment included with your transcript, please email the document to lawreg@bu.edu<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Requests for official printed transcripts that are mailed to our office must be accompanied by a check.<\/p>\n
