A transcript is a certified copy of the student’s academic record. In accordance with the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) of 1974, as amended, student academic records are classified as confidential and may be released only with the student’s written authorization and signature. NO ONE ELSE (including your spouse, parents, etc.) can request your transcript, as your written permission is required by law. No requests will be taken over the phone.
Transcript services may be withheld, with limited exceptions consistent with state and federal laws, for any student who owes Friends University money, property, or documents.
For information regarding Fraudulent Transcripts and Diplomas, please visit the Academic Catalog.

Current students can access their academic history, which contains much of the same information that appears on a transcript. Log in to Self-Service Banner > Student > Student Records > View your Academic Transcript.
Transcript Ordering
An official transcript may be requested electronically (hard copy and electronic PDF delivery options are available) or by visiting the University Registrar’s Office for a hard copy.
All transcript requests are reviewed for the accuracy of the student’s academic record and will be processed through the University Registrar’s Office located on the Wichita campus. Please allow 3-5 business days for processing an official transcript. If a student attended Friends University before 2007, there may be a longer delay for processing to ensure the accuracy of the student’s academic record.
