Please Note: The integrity of academic transcripts is fundamental to the validity of coursework and degrees certified by the University. Therefore, all student transcript entries (grades and other notations) are finalized when the pertinent degree is officially posted to the permanent academic record. Subsequent revision and alteration of any transcript entry, after the relevant degree is awarded, is permitted only for the correction of a proven error as certified by the appropriate academic dean and the registrar.
Replacement
A replacement diploma may be ordered when the student's original diploma has been lost or damaged. Duplicate diplomas are not issued.
A request for a replacement diploma must be accompanied by a completed diploma replacement request form. Payment is required prior to processing your request.
