Official
Transcripts
The University of Massachusetts Amherst has four separate transcript
operations: Continuing & Professional Education, Stockbridge School
of Agriculture, Graduate School, and University Registrar. Students
must request transcripts separately from each of the areas which they
attended. For more information on requesting transcripts from another
office, use the contact information below:
University Registrar's Office
Requesting official transcripts via SPIRE:
If you ever had access to SPIRE, please request your transcripts via your student center. If you need help accessing your SPIRE account, please contact
the OIT Helpdesk.
You have the option of having the transcript mailed,
picking it up in the University Registrar's Office (209 Whitmore) or authorizing someone to pick up your transcript for you. Important: if you
need the transcript to reflect grading for a specific term or to show degree information, generate an unofficial transcript first to determine if
the information has been posted to your record. For help on how to use the SPIRE official transcript request process
click here.
Requesting official transcripts via mail or fax:
If you do not have a SPIRE login or you are a non-degree student, the University Registrar's Office will send out your official
transcript(s) upon receipt of your written authorization. Your request must
include:
- your signature
- all names used on your academic record (last,
first, middle/maiden/other name)
- Student ID # or Social Security number
- your date of birth
- your address, telephone number and email
address
- any additional information which will enable us
to locate your record

Request Form [downloadable file]
Please send complete addresses of where you want your
transcripts sent. Also indicate how many copies you want sent to each
address. To be official, the transcript must be sent through the mail
directly to a third party or to the student in a confidential envelope
with the signature of the Registrar on the back of the envelope for use
in packaged applications. Alternately, a student may request that their
official transcript be held for pick up in the Registrar's Office, 209
Whitmore Administration Building. Requests for pickup must be made at
least three business days in advance. The Registrar's Office does
not deliver transcripts via email for any reason.
If you entered the University prior to September of 1990 or you are a non-degree student,
transcripts are $6.00 per copy. Please make your check payable to the
University of Massachusetts.
If you entered the University in September of 1990 or thereafter, your
transcripts are free, since you have paid the Registrar Service Fee.
Your letter of request should be mailed to:
University Registrar's Office
