Transcripts

Registration and Records Services (located in Bert Walker Hall) maintains the official permanent academic record - transcript of every student who attends JCC.

What is the difference between an official and an issued to student transcript?

An official transcript is stamped with the College seal and signed by the registrar.  An official transcript never passes through the hands of the student.  Official transcripts are sent directly to the recipient, such as another institution or employer.  Official transcripts cannot be carried or mailed by the student or the recipient will not accept them as official.  JCC does not release official transcripts to students.

An issued to student transcript does not include the registrar's signature or college seal.  The transcript is marked "issued to student."  These transcripts are recommended for the student's reference, advising and planning purposes only.

Official transcripts are printed on security paper. Issued to student transcripts are printed on white paper.

How do I request a copy of my transcript?

Transcripts are only released and issued upon the student's written request. Transcript request forms are available in the Student Center of the Jackson campus and all Centers, or from the link below.  You may also submit a letter requesting your transcript. Your transcript request should include:

  • Name
  • Former Names - Maiden Names
  • Address
  • Present Address
  • Telephone Number
  • Student ID Number
  • Birth Date
  • Approximate dates of last attendance
  • Name and Address where you would like the transcript sent
  • Signature

Transcripts are processed in a timely manner, normally within one week.  However, additional time may be required for research for those records dating back five or more years or filed under a former last name.  In these cases, the request is normally processed within ten business days.

JCC cannot fax transcripts because we cannot be assured that the recipient is the only person at the other end of the fax.  Transcripts are printed on security paper, which does not allow for faxing of these documents.

There is no fee for processing transcripts.  We can overnight transcripts for a delivery fee.  If overnight delivery is requested, payment arrangements must be made prior to our releasing the record.  If there is a business office hold on the record for tuition, fees or repayment of student loans, JCC does not release the official transcript until the hold is released or cleared.
