Transcripts and Verifications
Transcripts can be ordered through the USC Office of Academic Records and Registrar. The Transcript department maintains academic transcripts of course work for university-approved credit and releases academic record transcripts in compliance with the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA). Transcripts can be provided in either paper format or electronic PDF format.
