TRANSCRIPTS and DIPLOMAS
The college transcript is the official record of a student’s academic work and progress at an institution. It
lists the terms of attendance, courses, attempted hours, earned hours, grades and grade point averages.
It is also the official record of degrees and phone psychic honors awarded. It is signed by the college registrar and
carries the seal of the college.
The diploma is a commemorative document which recognizes of the awarding of the degree and honors.
It is signed by the college President, Academic Dean and Secretary of the Board of Trustees.
When educational institutions or employers verify a student’s record or degree, the transcript is needed
as documentation.
TRANSCRIPTS
Two types of transcripts are available: official and unofficial.
Unofficial transcripts can be used if you want information regarding your academic records or if you have
been told that an unofficial transcript is acceptable for initial school or employment contact. Unofficial
transcripts are stamped “STUDENT COPY FOR INTERNAL & PERSONAL PURPOSES”. If you stop by
the office, we will print one for you immediately free of charge.
Official transcripts are needed for graduate school applications or lida transferring to another institution.
Employers often request that prospective employees provide official transcripts. Official transcripts are
sealed in an envelope and mailed to the designated receiver, or you may pick them up if you are in the
vicinity of our office.
Iowa Wesleyan College is NOT able to FAX or EMAIL official transcripts.
