Transcript of Academic Record

A McGill transcript includes all attempted work and final grades obtained in all programs. The University does not issue partial transcripts under any circumstances.

The University issues official transcripts in electronic or paper format bearing the Registrar's signature. Requests for both electronic official (eTranscripts) and paper transcripts are submitted in Minerva.

eTranscript PDFs are issued the same-day in as little as 15 minutes (providing there are no holds on your student account and no attachments to review) via the MyCreds™ platform where you will need to purchase share credits. MyCreds™ is a National Network, shared service and platform that provides students and graduates access to a secure, online, password protected learner credential wallet owned by the Association of Registrars of the Universities and Colleges of Canada (ARUCC).

Official paper transcripts are normally processed in 3 to 5 working days (5 to 7 during peak periods) and mailed by regular Canada Post mail to the address(es) indicated on the request. Paper transcripts are free of charge for currently registered students. Transcript fees apply for alumni and former students. Requests for archived transcripts (pre-1972) have a longer processing time.

Paper official transcripts are printed on secure paper that cannot be copied. eTranscripts are digitally signed and certified PDF documents that cannot be copied.

For more information on requesting official transcripts, refer to Official Transcripts.

Note: The University may not be held responsible for the loss or delay of transcripts in the mail.

Note: You cannot submit a transcript request in Minerva if you have holds on your record (e.g., accounting, registrar, library, etc.). Please verify the top of your unofficial transcript in Minerva for any holds.
