Requests
Transcripts can be issued only with the student’s written consent.
To request a transcript, open the Transcript Request Form
and type in all requested information. Print and sign the form, then mail or fax it to the Registrar's Office at the following address:
Registrar’s Office
Truman State University
100 E. Normal
Kirksville, MO 63501-4221
Fax: 660-785-7396
Transcripts may also be requested in person at the Registrar’s Office, McClain Hall 104. Requests for transcripts cannot be made by e-mail or by phone.
Release
Transcripts may be released directly to the student or to a third-party. Transcripts that are issued to a student will be marked "Issued to Student" and will remain official as long as they are not opened. Any request to send a transcript to a third party must include a complete address. If an incorrect address is provided, the student will be responsible for ordering a new transcript.
Transcript Fees
Transcripts cost $5.00 each. Transcripts can also be faxed for an additional $3.00 charge, or sent overnight mail for an additional $10.00 charge. Additional fees will be charged for international overnight service; please contact the Registrar's Office for an estimate if you would like
to pursue this option.
Payment must be made before transcripts will be released. Payment can be made by sending a check payable to Truman State University, or by using your Visa, Master Card, or Discover Card. To charge transcript fees, include your credit card number and expiration date with your request.
Processing Time
All transcript requests are processed in the order in which they are received. Please note that a request to send a transcript by fax or overnight mail does not expedite the processing of your request, although it will significantly reduce delivery time. Normal processing time is one to two working days.
If you graduated between 1980 and 2003 and if you have not ordered transcripts in the past three years, your transcript will require additional processing time. In the Summer of 2003 we converted student records to our new student information system, and, as a result, must verify each transcript before it is released. Processing time for these requests may last up to three working days, or longer at the beginning or end of a semester.
Questions
If you have questions about ordering transcripts or the status of your transcript request, please contact Brenda Embree, Transcript Clerk, at 660-785-4229. Our office is open Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
