Special Considerations When Ordering – Hold for Degree/Grades
- If you place an order before your degree is awarded and you need your degree reflected on the transcript, in the “When do you want this sent?” section, choose “Hold for Degree”.
- If you place an order before grades are awarded and you need the grades from the current term to be on the transcript, in the “When do you want this sent?” section, choose “Hold for Grades”.
- If you fail to choose either of these options as needed, you must re-order the transcript at your own cost.
