Oregon State University has announced that PDF e-transcript requests will now be free of charge in an updated fee structure for official transcripts that will go into effect on March 6, according to an all-students email sent on Tuesday. Paper transcripts, including the pick-up option, will now cost $10 instead of zero.

   The decision to make e-transcripts free is due to increased requests and for OSU to ‘best support students.’ 

   Transcript services will be temporary unavailable from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Wednesday and it will go live by the end of the day on March 6. Additional features include secure requesting transcripts online 24/7, tracking requests online and an email notification for when e-transcripts are delivered. 

   Students with questions or in need of assistance can contact the Office of the Registrar at (541) 737-4331 or email [email protected]
