Order an Official Transcript
For students who attended WCU during or after 1985
Current and former students (who attended during/after 1985) must log into myWCU to order an official transcript. Students will access the Parchment storefront from myWCU. Students who attended prior to 1985 will create an account directly on the Parchment website. Current classes that are in-progress and not yet graded will not show on transcript. If a term has recently ended, wait until grades are posted to order a transcript.

Students with certain holds on their account will not be able to access the ordering page until the holds are removed.
From the myWCU website, the student will be redirected to the Parchment website.
The first time ordering a transcript from Parchment, the student must set up an account. The student will be asked to verify information that is needed to validate identity.
The student will be asked to enter an email that will be used for the account. It is best to use a personal email that would still be active long after the student has finished their school career or changes schools.
Enter your personal identifying information for verification.
Once the identifying information has been entered, click the Create Account & Continue button.
A confirmation email will be sent so that Parchment can confirm your identity.
