An unofficial transcript is merely an unofficial copy of your academic record. This type of transcript can be used to review your records, verify what classes you have taken, grade point average, etc. An official transcript is an authorized copy of your academic record printed on official security paper, featuring both the Troy University seal and University Registrar's signature. This type of transcript is generally sent directly to an institution and not the student. It is often requested for employment, by other academic institutions, and by certifying bodies.
You can order an official transcript by going to https://www.troy.edu/academics/academic-resources/records-office/transcripts.html.
If you are in need of an unofficial transcript and are a current student, log in to Self-Service, go to Student Planning, and select Academics in the upper left of the screen. You will see Unofficial Transcript. If you are a previous student and need an unofficial transcript, email outgoingtranscripts@troy.edu with a copy of your valid photo ID, your TROY ID number or the last 4 of your SSN, and the name your account will be listed under at TROY (if different from your valid ID name).
