Excerpt


Below you will find instructions on how to order an official transcript. For specific information related to what appears on an official transcript, please refer to the Transcript portion of the Academic Catalog.

Effective July 1, 2014, official transcripts may only be ordered online.

The University of West Florida has

chosen the services of Credentials Solutions

partnered with Parchment Transcript Services in order to provide a web-based transcript service. Transcript Services utilizes Blue Ribbon Certification as an additional security feature applied to PDF orders. When placing your transcript order for the first time in this new system, you must create a new account. Please note, we recommend using an email address that is NOT affiliated with the University of West Florida. By using your UWF email address, you may experience issues accessing your transcripts after the downgrade of your ArgoNet account. Please contact Parchment Support Center if you need further assistance in this regard. 

Credentials Solutions has implemented TranscriptsPlus® as a secure means of ordering transcripts faster and easier than in the past. Payment by credit card is required and processed at the time of placing your transcript order. In addition to standard delivery, Credentials Parchment offers Fed Ex for expedited delivery (for an additional charge).
