Official Transcripts

Florida State University has contracted with Parchment® Award Transcript Services for automated processing of academic transcripts. Using this service allows alumni, former, and current students an efficient, web-based experience for acquiring official transcripts. Instructions for using Parchment® Award Transcript Services are located below.

Begin Order

After placing your online order, you can check its status by navigating to the Orders section of your Parchment® account. Please note that if Parchment® Award Transcript Services is unable to fulfill your order for any reason, they will notify you by the method you designated when you placed the order.

NOTE: Should you have questions about coded items appearing on your transcript, you can download a Transcript Explanation PDF. This document provides a legend that describes those codes, as well as general information about the grading system and related policies. You can also view a comprehensive transcript key on this website.

Ordering through myFSU

Current Students

If you're a currently enrolled student, please go to my.fsu.edu and log in with your Username (FSUID) and password. On the left-hand side of your portal page, expand the Academic category and select Request Official Transcript.

Former Students

Former students should click on the "Begin Order" button above to start the transcript ordering process. Parchment will ask for your student ID. If you don't know your student ID, you can skip the box and then when it pops up a second time, choose the option "I do not know or remember by student ID," then enter your SSN.

If you prefer to create your order through the myFSU portal, navigate to my.fsu.edu and log in with your FSUID and password. On the left-hand side menu, expand the Alumni and Former Students category and select Request Official Transcript. The Transcript Ordering interface appears, where you provide all of the necessary information to obtain the official transcript.

NOTE: If you're an alumni or former student but you don't know your FSUID, navigate to my.fsu.edu, and under the myFSU Login, click the Manage FSUID/Password link. Follow the prompts to obtain your FSUID.

  • If you had an FSUID before, you'll just need to reset your password.
  • To do so, you will need to know your EMPLID number. If you no longer have this number, email us at registrar@fsu.edu. Please provide identifying information such as full name, former name (if applicable), date of birth, dates of attendance, degree earned, and so on. We will reply with your EMPLID within one business day.
  • If you need assistance with your FSUID and password, please call the ITS Service Desk at (850) 644-4357 (644-HELP), Monday-Friday, 8 a.m.-6 p.m. ET.
