What if I attended before 1998?

If you attended before 1998, you can do a transcript order for the mailing option only; you will not be able to order an electronic PDF transcript.

Attachments may be in PDF, doc, docx, jpg, or jpeg format. 

Can I delay processing until my semester grades or graduation posts?
