Alumni Transcripts
An official transcript bears the Northwestern University School of Law Seal and a signature certifying its authenticity. Official transcripts are sensitive and official documents, and their release requires a written signature.

Alumni may request an official transcript by visiting the Office of the Registrar during office hours Monday thru Friday from 10:00 a.m. - 4:30 p.m., or sending a written request by letter or fax (you can only request one transcript via fax) with the following information:

Phone number or email address
YOUR SIGNATURE (we will not process a request without your signature) and date.

Official transcripts for alumni and former students are $5.00 per transcript. Normal processing time is 2-3 business days. During the months of December - January and April - May, please allow a minimum of 5 business days for processing, in addition to mailing transport time.
