TRANSCRIPTS


TRANSCRIPT INFORMATION:

A transcript is a confidential record of a student's attendance and final grades.

All students can check their final grades by logging on to myInfo (WebAdvisor). Official transcripts of these marks, however, must be ordered from the Office of the Registrar.

This information will not be released without the student's written consent and payment.

ORDERING INFORMATION:

To avoid delays in having a transcript sent, complete mailing information regarding destination must be provided by the student. Please print and complete the Request For Official Transcripts Form or provide us with the following information:

 
  • Full name (former surname, if applicable)
  • Lakehead University student number or SIN number and date of birth
  • Daytime phone number
  • Complete address of where the transcript is to be sent
  • Number of copies

Transcripts may be ordered from the Office of the Registrar in person, by fax at (807) 343-8156, or by emailing transcripts@lakeheadu.ca from your Lakehead email account.  Transcript requests submitted from non-Lakehead email accounts or by telephone will not be accepted.

Student's transcripts will be issued at the student's request subject to the required processing time of 5 business days.  This timeframe is usually met throughout the year, however, transcript orders may be delayed during the peak periods of May/June, September/October, and January.  Please plan accordingly.

Students picking up their transcripts must provide valid photo ID such as a Lakehead University student card, a driver's licence or health card.  Transcripts being picked up by a third-party must have written permission from the student and photo ID of their own.

The Office of the Registrar cannot be responsible for transcripts lost or delayed in the mail.

PAYMENT OPTIONS:

Payment of $10.00 per copy must accompany the transcript request. Acceptable forms of payment include CASH, MONEY ORDER, MASTERCARD or VISA
