The Registrar’s Office maintains permanent academic records of current and former students. The office is responsible for course registration, class schedules, official transcripts, enrollment verification, transfer credit evaluation, degree audit and graduation clearance, international student services, and various other academic-related matters.
Review the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) section of this handbook for how the Registrar’s Office protects student education records. View the FERPA Policies & Forms webpage on MySLC for more information.
Official Transcripts
Current and recently graduated students may request transcripts through the Transcripts page of MySLC, ordered through the National Student Clearinghouse (NSC); former students without MySLC logins may request official transcripts directly from the NSC at getmytranscript.com. The fee for transcripts is $10 per copy. Mailed requests should include a check or money order payable to Sarah Lawrence College. Additional charges apply for expedited delivery. Transcript fees cannot be billed to the student’s account. If a transcript is sent directly to the student to be forwarded to another party (e.g., another college or university, potential employer) and the student opens the envelope, the transcript is then considered unofficial.
Prior to fall 2024, official transcripts included only courses in which academic credit has been earned and courses currently in progress. Beginning with the entering Class of 2024, all attempted and earned credits display on the official transcript.
Sarah Lawrence College cannot provide copies of transcripts from other schools a student has attended. If such transcripts are needed, those schools should be contacted directly.
If a student is currently enrolled and the transcript request is marked “after final grades are posted” or “after degree is posted,” the College holds the request until grades and/or degree is posted, or until the student notifies the Registrar’s Office otherwise.
If a student is enrolled in yearlong classes and wishes to include provisional grades with the transcript, the student must ask the teachers to submit provisional grades through MySLC and notify the registrar.
Transcripts are usually issued within four to six business days once payment is received. Official transcripts bear the College seal and the registrar’s signature.
Enrollment Verification
Students requiring enrollment verification for veterans’ benefits, loan deferments, or any other reason should email the Registrar’s Office at regoff@sarahlawrence.edu. Currently enrolled students may generate their own verification through the Transcript page of MySLC, ordered through the National Student Clearinghouse (NSC), available approximately three weeks after the first day of classes.
