Request a Transcript

The Office of Higher Education maintains student records from closed or formerly regulated post-secondary institutions, which includes: 

• Closed private colleges located in Minnesota
• Closed out-of-state colleges that were licensed or registered with the State of Minnesota
• Closed schools which may have been regulated by other Minnesota state agencies but used the term College, University, Academy, or Institute in their name

The Minnesota Office of Higher Education does not maintain records for all closed private colleges and training programs as other schools or entities may hold the records on behalf of the closed school. For more information, please refer to this site. The Office also does not maintain records for institutions that are still operating. 

For records maintained by the Office, you can request transcripts online. There is a $15 fee charged per transaction, and you can order up to 5 copies per transaction. This request process IS NOT for closed high school records. If you need a transcript from an institution that is currently open, please contact that institution directly to request a transcript. 

The following items are required to submit the form: 

• $15 fee, paid via e-check and e-payments
• The name of the school you are requesting a transcript
• Your current legal name
• Your legal name while attending the school
• Approximate date(s) of attendance
• Fax number, email address, or mailing address of where you would like your transcript(s) to be sent
