Student records are maintained for the benefit of the student. They are used for promotion, instruction, career development, guidelines, and the educational progress of the student. Student transcripts are available to a student, and their parent/legal guardian when requested, and to local, state, and federal agencies as allowed by law. Student transcripts can only be released with prior written consent from a parent/legal guardian or by the student if they are over the age of 18.
Types of Transcripts:

Schools and colleges typically request official transcripts. Helms College does require a $5.00 processing fee for each copy requested. Requests will not be processed without payment or drop off your completed form with payment to Helms College. Transcripts can not be processed if you have an academic or financial hold on your records.
- Unofficial: This is a copy of a transcript that is not signed, stamped or sealed. Scholarships typically request unofficial transcript copies.
