Transcripts

A transcript is an official document that shows which classes you to at the University. It also shows all courses attempted and Leighton University, including those withdrawn from and those repeated.  The transcript also includes a summary of all transfer credits accepted by the University. The Registrar’s Office maintains a single, cumulative transcript of classes completed at the University and issues copies upon the student's signed request. Students who have completed at least one Term at Leighton University has access to Unofficial transcripts through My.Leighton (Populi). Transcripts may be obtained for personal use or forwarded to another party.  To learn more about policies that guide the issuance of a transcript, go to https://leighton-edu.us/requesting-a-transcript/.

Do I have to provide my Social Security Number?

Disclosure of your social security number is not required to order a transcript. This is particularly true for students who were initially enrolled under their SSN. If you choose not to provide an SSN, your request's processing may be delayed, making it challenging to ensure that your record is complete.

You have the option of not having your SSN printed on your transcript. However, it may make it difficult for receiving institutions to match your records, or they may not accept transcripts without a printed SSN. If you choose not to supply your SSN, the University is not responsible for any problems that may arise.
