Transcripts

There is no additional fee for a transcript; students are assessed a one-time lifetime fee during their first semester at Vanderbilt University. No unofficial transcripts will be provided. Official transcripts are provided as either electronic or hard copy.

Transcripts are provided by the Office of the University Registrar upon request by the student. Instructions for requesting your official transcript can be found here.

If you are a current student, you can request your transcript through YES on your student landing page. Otherwise, you will complete this request form and return to the Office of the University Registrar.
