Transcripts
A transcript is a student's complete academic record at the University of Michigan-Dearborn.
Official vs Unofficial
Official transcripts are printed on special protective paper or created with a secure PDF format. The transcript is only official if it has the University of Michigan-Dearborn seal and the Registrar's signature. Official transcripts given directly to a student may not be accepted as official.
Unofficial transcripts do not contain the University of Michigan-Dearborn seal or the Registrar’s signature. Students may obtain an unofficial transcript at any time via the Student Information System.
