REQUESTING A TRANSCRIPT

Transcripts may be ordered in three ways:

1) ONLINE

Shorter College has authorized the National Student Clearinghouse to provide transcript ordering and credit card payment through a secured internet transaction.

To order an official transcript(s), login into the Clearinghouse secure site.

This site will walk you through the order placement process, including delivery options and fees. You may order as many transcripts as you like in a single session. A $2.25 processing fee will be charged per recipient.

Updates about your order will be emailed to you. You can also check your order status and history online.

If you need help or have questions about the Clearinghouse's transcript ordering service, contact 703-742-7791 or transcripts@studentclearinghouse.org.

Students in the TRADITIONAL PROGRAMS may mail the form and payment to:

Office of the Registrar
Shorter College

Rome, GA 30165

Requests made by a student in PROFESSIONAL STUDIES programs at any location should mail the form and payment to:

Office of the Registrar, Shorter College Professional Studies
6151 Powers Ferry Road, NW Suite 170
Atlanta, GA 30339

Transcripts must be requested in writing; email, fax and telephone requests will not be honored.

The request must be signed by the student, not another party. When writing to request a transcript, please include your full name (including maiden name, if necessary), your address, your years of attendance, your Social Security Number, and the year/semester in which you graduated (if applicable).

3) IN PERSON

Complete a Transcript Request Form in the Registrar's Office.

Charges per copy are as follows:

Regular Service (usually within 24 hours) - $1.00
Immediate Service - $5.00
Fax (including mailing official transcript) - $6.00

Online orders will include a $2.25 processing fee, in addition to the cost of the transcript.

All requests must be prepaid. Payment may be in cash or by check made out to Shorter College.

Make sure all financial obligations to the College have been met. The Business Office, Library, Campus Safety, and others may have placed a hold on your record which will prevent the release of an official transcript.

If you have other questions concerning transcripts please contact the Registrar's Office in Rome (1-800-868-6980, x 7388) or in North Atlanta (678-260-3531).
