Requesting a Transcript
The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act requires educational institutions to obtain a signed release from the student prior to releasing confidential educational records. Therefore, PCO's Registrar's Office must obtain a signed letter or completed form prior to the release of that student's transcript. These must include the name, social security number, program, graduation year, address to which the transcripts are to be sent, the student’s signature and phone number.
Official transcripts will not be sent to the student unless the student provides official printed documentation from the intended recipient stating the need for the official transcript to be received via the student in a sealed envelope.
