We’ve been receiving a lot inquiries from students about unofficial transcripts, so I thought it would be a good time to re-post the blog post from July 10th on how to produce unofficial transcripts.   The original post follows below.

Original Post (July 10th):

We’ve received a number of requests from students for unofficial transcripts.   While our office does not issue unofficial transcripts (or official transcripts for that matter), you have a couple of options for producing an unofficial transcript yourself:

1. Create from an official transcript
   Official transcripts are ordered through the Student Service Centre (SSC). You can find more information on how to order official transcripts here: http://students.ubc.ca/enrolment/records/transcript.Once you’ve received your official transcript, you can photocopy your transcript to create a hard-copy unofficial transcript, or you can scan your transcripts to create an electronic unofficial transcript.
   Official transcripts are printed with security features, so regardless of whether you photocopy or scan your official transcripts, the unofficial transcript produced will most likely have some markings to indicate that the transcript is a copy.
2. Print your Grades Summary through the Student Service Centre
   Once you’ve logged into SSC, select the “Your Grades Summary” link from the home page.   From here, you’ll see a list of the grades for all courses completed at UBC.   Select the Print option from the top of the page.   If you have a PDF writer on your computer, you should be able to create a PDF of Your Grades Summary through the Print function.   Alternatively, you can print off a hard copy of Your Grades Summary to create a hard-copy unofficial transcript, or if an electronic unofficial transcript is required, scan this printout to create an electronic version

For students requiring unofficial transcripts for CPA applications this Fall, it would be best to wait until your grades from the Summer Session are available on your transcripts before they are printed, regardless of how you choose to generate your transcripts, as employers will want to see your grades from classes completed over the Summer.
