To obtain her official transcript, your daughter can follow these steps:

Obtaining an Official Transcript

• Current Students: Log into MyUCLA with her UCLA Logon ID, navigate to the "Classes" tab, and select "Transcript – Official".
• Alumni/Non-current Students: If she does not have a MyUCLA login, she can order through Parchment by creating a learner account.
• In-Person/Mail: She can complete the Official Transcript Order Form and submit it to the Registrar’s Office at 1113 Murphy Hall or mail it to the address provided on the form.
• Delivery & Fees: Standard electronic transcripts are typically free, while expedited paper transcripts cost around $15.00, and FedEx delivery is $25.00. Processing times vary, with electronic PDFs often processed within 24 hours and paper transcripts taking about three business days plus mailing time.

Difference Between Official and Unofficial Transcripts Both types of transcripts contain the same academic information, but they differ in several key aspects:

• Authentication: Official transcripts are printed on security paper with the Registrar's seal, while unofficial transcripts are printed on plain paper without the seal.
• Delivery: Official transcripts are sent directly from UCLA to the recipient in a sealed envelope or as a secure PDF, whereas unofficial transcripts can be downloaded or printed by the student immediately.
• Usage: Official transcripts are required for formal applications, such as internships or graduate school, while unofficial transcripts are typically used for personal records or advising.

It is important to note that an official transcript becomes unofficial if opened by the student or uploaded personally rather than sent directly from UCLA to the employer's designated address.
