Ball State University provides students several convenient options for ordering transcripts:

For Currently Enrolled Students

  • No fee for transcripts picked up at the registrar's office, Lucina Hall B-43 for current students
  • $12.00 fee for an electronic transcript (PDF) plus a $1.75 National Student Clearinghouse processing fee
  • Overnight delivery is available for a significantly higher fee

How the Process Works for Current Students
Students who are currently enrolled can make mail and pick up requests via the transcript order page here.

Current students wishing to order an electronic transcript must do so through the National Student Clearinghouse secure transcript order site.

How the Process Works for Former Students and Alumni

Upon making their requests, users may digitally sign a consent form as part of the process or download and return a copy to the National Student Clearinghouse via fax/e-mail. Once the form is completed, students will be able to track the progress of their order via real-time e-mail updates or through the National Student Clearinghouse website.
