Pomona observes a transcript blackout period for current students while final grading period is open to faculty. During the blackout period, neither official nor unofficial transcripts are available. Current students receive multiple notifications about the transcript blackout and are advised to download an unofficial transcript and/or general education requirement audit prior to the blackout period. Transcript requests for current students received during the blackout will be fulfilled after the blackout period has ended.
Pomona uses Parchment as our transcript-processing partner. There are several options for delivery of your official transcript. When you place your order, you may select one of the following delivery methods:
If you are a current student log on to My.Pomona, select the “Student” Menu at the top, then select "Transcripts" within "My Academic Records." This page will give you the option to order an official transcript via Parchment, our transcript-processing partner.
If you are an alumnus you will need to self-register for an account directly through the Pomona College Parchment page.
