How to Request a Transcript

Verifications of Enrollment

Need a transcript or two? We only have official ones. Here's what you need to do:

  1. Put your request in writing. We have to have your signature to release your record. No phone or e-mail requests...sorry!
    • During office hours, if you're in the neighborhood, pick up a form.
    • Send us a letter (brief or chatty, it's up to you) or fill out this form and return to us.
    • Fax us a letter (see special fax rules below).

  2. If you write or fax, be sure you've given us enough to go on! We need to know:
    • Full name, please, and former names if you've had them.
    • When you attended Mac.
    • Where you want us to mail the transcript, including the address! We'll send it wherever you request, including directly to you.
    • Watch your penmanship, or you may slow us down.

  3. Show us the money!
    • The fee is $5.00 per transcript.
    • Cash, Checks, or Money Orders only (no credit cards.)  Make checks payable to Macalester College.
    • If you have a past debt to Mac, we may not be able to send the transcript.
    • A non-refundable service charge of $20 will be assessed for NSF checks.

  4. Mail your letter to:
    • Registrar's Office
      Macalester College
      1600 Grand Avenue
      St. Paul, MN 55105-1899

  5. Wait (but not for long).
    • Usually we get your transcripts in the mail the next business day after we get your request.

FAX RULES: You may request ONE transcript by fax, and we'll send the transcript out in the mail. Transcripts are NOT faxable. Be sure to include a daytime phone number or email in case we have questions. Write the date faxed on the original and mail it with the $5.00 fee. Our fax number is 651-696-6600.

OFFICE HOURS: 8:30 AM - 4:30 PM Monday through Friday.

Questions? Call us at 651-696-6200.
