Ordering a transcript

If you are a current UBC student or alumnus, you can request an official transcript, which includes your complete academic record at UBC.

Transcripts are confidential and can only be released by request from a student or alumnus.

You can place an order for one of the following:

• PDF transcript delivered by email
• Paper copy delivered by mail
• Paper copy delivered by courier
• Paper copy picked up in person

Review important information about your transcript before placing an order:

• Log in to your Student Service Centre (SSC) and check that your grades are available in your "Grades Summary" under Grades & Records.
• All transcript orders are non-refundable and cancellations are not permitted.
• UBC is not responsible for delayed or lost mail.
• Your degree will be conferred after the Senate meets, and it will appear on the official transcript on Friday, May 20, 2022.
• The student or alumnus must order the transcript themselves.
• We cannot accept credit card payment information over email due to credit card security policies.
• Students on financial hold are not permitted to order transcripts. Please contact Enrolment Services about paying late overdue fees.
• Forms that need to be enclosed with the transcript must be submitted with the transcript order. Please email the forms along with your name and student number to transcripts.students@ubc.ca.

Same-day PDF transcripts

Enrolment Services offers emailed same-day PDF transcripts, available from Monday to Friday until 3 pm. Each transcript costs $14.70 CAD, excluding tax.

You must place the order in person at the Enrolment Services Advising Centre in Brock Hall.

Pick up in person

You can pick up your paper transcript at Brock Hall. To place an order, visit Enrolment Services in Brock Hall and pay by debit card, VISA, or mastercard. 

You will be required to provide the following for pick-up:

• Photo ID matching the name on the transcript
• Proof of name change, where applicable

If someone is picking up your transcripts on your behalf

You must order your own transcript yourself, even if you authorize someone else to pick it up for you. The person picking up your document must provide the following:

• A completed Third-Party Pick-up Form (pdf)
• The required identification noted in the pick-up form instructions, for both you and the person you authorized to pick up your transcript

Courses for the current session will not display on your transcript until the first day of classes. Make sure you order your transcript on or after the first day of classes if you want the current session's courses to display.

For example, if you have registered for Winter Term 1 or Term 2 but classes haven't started yet, your transcript won't display any course information for that session. You'll have to wait until Winter Term 1 classes start for the courses to appear on your transcript.
