Online Transcript Request Options
UMass Amherst offers two online transcript request options: the Parchment service and the University’s online request form. The Parchment service is a secure online platform that allows you to request and track your transcript orders. The University’s online request form is also available for those who prefer to submit their requests directly to the Registrar’s Office.
To request a transcript through Parchment, you will need to create an account and follow the prompts to place your order. The University's online request form can be filled out and submitted electronically, and you will need to provide your student ID number and date of birth to verify your identity.

|---|---|---|
| Parchment Service | $10 per transcript | Same-day processing for electronic transcripts, 2-3 business days for paper transcripts |
| University's Online Request Form | $10 per transcript | 2-3 business days for processing |
In addition to the online transcript request options, you can also request a transcript in person or by mail.

To request a transcript by mail, download and complete the transcript request form from the UMass Amherst website, and mail it to the Registrar's Office with the required payment.
