12 Transcript and Parchment Information

Requesting Transcripts

Students can request official copies of transcripts for mailing to other institutions, and unofficial copies for personal use. Transcripts will be provided to the student or directly to an external party upon written request.

For current students:

  • To request an official transcript: Login to MyUPEI, go to Student Planning in the Student Toolbox. Select the Transcript Requests selection and fill out the form. Please note that the information entered in this section is directly printed onto the transcript, so ensure it is complete and accurate. The University is not liable for incomplete or incorrect information.
  • To request an unofficial transcript: Login to MyUPEI and click the link for the Unofficial Transcript Request in the Student Toolbox. This will produce a PDF copy of your unofficial transcript at any time, for your personal use.

For former students:

  • Please complete the Transcript Request Form and submit your request to transcripts@upei.ca If possible, please use your UPEI.ca student email address to submit your requests.
  • If you still have access to your Student Portal (Student Planning), you can make the request through the Transcript Requests selection instead of using the Transcript Request Form.

NOTES:

  • Transcripts are prepared daily; however, during peak periods, such as at the end of each academic session, at least one week’s notice may be required.
  • Requests from students with fees owing to the University will not be processed.

Fees:

  • Regular mail and fax service are free of charge.
  • Courier fees are as follows:
    • $10 within the Maritimes
    • $20 for other Canadian destinations
    • $30 for International

Courier requests must include a street address and a phone number, including the area code.

  • $15 same-day processing fee (does not include delivery time), in addition to the costs of the particular request.
  • Payment accepted by VISA, MasterCard, or American Express. Sorry, no Visa Debit.

Degree and Parchment Reprint Policy

At the time of graduation the University of Prince Edward Island provides each graduating student with one official parchment; while duplicates are not permitted, reprints are available if one of the following conditions is met:

  1. Damaged parchment – In the case of a damaged parchment, the original parchment must be returned to the Registrar’s Office at the time of the reprint order.
  2. Name change – The original parchment must be returned to the Registrar’s Office at the time of the reprint order, as well as an official name change with supporting documents must be submitted either prior to or at the time of the reprint order.
  3. Lost or misplaced – If unable to provide the original parchment, an affidavit from a lawyer, commissioner of oaths or a notary public, with their official stamp or seal, is required at the time of the reprint order and must contain the following information:
  • What happened to the original parchment (e.g., lost, stolen)
  • Graduate’s full name and date of birth (provide former name if different at the time of graduation)
  • Graduate’s current mailing address
  • Credential(s) awarded and the year graduated

Parchment reprint orders must be requested by the graduate and are subject to a $30 fee (plus courier charge if being mailed) due when placing the order. Replacement parchments will bear the signatures of the current President, Registrar, and Dean, as well as a “Degree Reprint” notation in the bottom left corner with the date of reprint.
