TRANSCRIPT INFORMATION

 

▫Transcripts for all former and current students are issued upon receipt of a written request, signed by the student. E-mail, fax and telephone requests will not be accepted.

 

* Transcripts will not be released for students who have an outstanding financial obligation to the college. You are responsible for checking your account balance before submitting a request. You can do this by calling the Financial Aid Office at 312-939-0111.

 

▫Transcript requests are processed in the order in which they are received. The normal processing time is 4 business days, however, during peak times and registration, this time period may be longer.

 

▫Official transcripts will be sent to the address provided by you on the request form; you are responsible for the accuracy of the address.

 

▫The fee for an official transcript is $5.00 per copy. Next-day (24-hour) service is $10.00 per copy. The transcript will be produced in 24 hours, excluding requests submitted on Friday. Next day requests received on Friday will be ready on Monday. The fee for same-day processing or to have a transcript faxed is $20.00.

 

▫All fees sent to the university are non-refundable.

 

▫All transcript requests which cannot be processed will be returned by mail to the requester.

 

▫ All transcripts are sent through First Class Priority Mail; you may provide your own FedEx envelope w/ postage paid if rush delivery is needed. The Records Office cannot be responsible for the length of delivery time; our fees are for guaranteed processing times only.

 

▫High School and other College transcript copies are not issued by East-West University. These must be obtained directly from the original institution. Once a transcript is submitted to East-West, it becomes a permanent part of your academic record and therefore cannot be released.
