Requesting Transcripts in the GCU Portal

There are two types of transcripts that can be accessed through the portal: official and unofficial. Official transcripts are paper transcripts that are typically required from schools or even employers as official proof of enrollment. Unofficial transcripts are PDF transcripts that can be downloaded and printed, as needed. Select Official Transcripts or Unofficial Transcripts below for instructions on obtaining each type.

Official Transcripts

Grand Canyon University will process transcripts immediately upon request; however, if you are waiting for your degree to be posted or for a certain class to show as completed, you should not request official transcripts until you are certain that these actions have occurred.

NOTE Additionally, students cannot request official transcripts if there is a hold on their account. If you have a hold on your account, contact your counselor. If there is a hold on your account but you need transcripts immediately, you can always download an unofficial transcript using the steps in the appropriate drop down menu below. 

There are multiple ways to request your official transcript through GCU. The easiest way is through the GCU Portal. 

      1. Log into the GCU Portal using your GCU email address and password. Then, click the Transcript Request app in the My Apps dashboard.

      2. Click Request Transcript to continue.
      3. Select Add Recipient.
      4. You will have two options for Recipient Type. Fill in the recipient information according to the type you selected and choose how many copies you would like.
        • Other: If you are sending your transcript to another school or an alternate party, select Other from the Recipient Type drop-down menu. Enter the recipient’s information. Once all required fields are entered, click Save.
        • Student: If you are the recipient of the transcript, select Student from the Recipient Type drop-down menu. If your address is listed in your GCU Portal, the required fields within the form will automatically fill in this information. When you click Save, the information will be stored and you will be redirected to the Add Recipient page to add more recipients or to process your request.
      5. Once you have finished adding recipients to the transcript request, you can proceed with processing your request by clicking Pay on the Transcript Request page. Each Transcript Request costs $5.00 to process.

      6. From the Processing Payment page, you can make any last minute changes as needed. If the billing address is the same as the address on file, select Use as Billing Address. Be sure to fill in the billing address fields before proceeding onto the Credit Card Information section. Once all the information has been filled out, press Process to submit the transcript request.

      7. After the transcript request is processed, you will receive a confirmation displaying the transcript information. Select Close to end the process, or select printer friendly version to save this confirmation for your records.

Alternatively, you can also request a transcript over the phone, by mail, email, or fax. Click here for more information on how to request your official transcript using these other methods.
