Transcripts

Need a Transcript?

Current and former IECC students may obtain both unofficial and official transcripts of their education records by following the instructions below. 

Before you request a transcript! 

Electronic processing of transcripts is immediate.  For current/recent students: Do not place an order until you know grades, certificates/degrees, or other important data have been posted to your student record.  It would be wise to run an unofficial transcript via Entrata first; particularly if it’s soon after the close of a semester. 
 

Unofficial Transcripts

There’s no charge for unofficial transcripts obtained via a link in your Entrata account.  Standard charges apply for unofficial transcripts obtained through the Student Records Office.  These transcripts will be identified as “Unofficial Transcript”.  Be advised that most colleges and universities accept only official transcripts submitted to the receiving institution by the college issuing the transcript. 

Official Transcripts

There are 2 options for requesting official transcripts:

1) Online at the National Student Clearinghouse.   IECC has partnered with the National Student Clearinghouse to process transcripts online.  There is a link from your Entrata Account (and below) to access the site in order to request an official transcript.  Once you access the site, there are easy-to-follow directions that will help you place the order and provide information on delivery options, fees and tracking.  Be sure to select Illinois Eastern Community Colleges.  Information from all four colleges will appear on a single transcript.  A major credit or debit card is necessary.  

2) In person in the Student Records Office at the college.  A completed transcript request form, photo ID, and payment of the fee are required prior to release of the transcript.
