To request a copy of your Lake Superior State University academic transcript, please print the Transcript Request Form. You will need to
complete and sign this form, then mail or fax the form to the Registrar’s Office. Our address and fax number are on
the form. Transcript Request Forms can also be scanned and emailed to: registrar@lssu.edu. We will only accept
email requests where the completed and signed Transcript Request Form is attached. All transcript requests must
contain the student’s signature.
Transcript requests are normally processed within three to five business days.
Official Transcripts:
Official transcripts are printed on security transcript paper and contain the University seal and the signature
of the Registrar. Official transcripts mailed to the student or picked up by the student will be stamped “Issued to
Student”. Many institutions will only consider a transcript official if it is mailed directly from the issuing
institution to their institution.
Unofficial Transcripts:
Unofficial transcripts are printed on white paper and contain the statement “Unofficial Transcript”. Unofficial
transcripts can be requested by completing our Transcript Request Form, or can be picked up at the Registrar's Office,
located in the Fletcher Center for Student Services. Students picking up an unofficial transcript will
need to present picture identification. The transcript will be prepared immediately, free of charge.
Students may also obtain a copy of their unofficial transcript online by logging into My.LSSU, then entering
Anchor Access. Transcripts from Fall Semester 1992 to present are available. Students need to know their username
and password. If you don’t know your username and/or password, please print the
Request for User Name or Password Reset Form, complete, then mail or fax to
the Registrar’s Office. Our fax number is on the form.
Faxed Transcripts:
Only Unofficial transcripts can be faxed.
Cost:
The very first transcript requested is free. After, each transcript (official, faxed unofficial, or mailed
unofficial) costs $5.00. If more than 5 transcripts are ordered at one time, the charge is reduced to $1.00 per
transcript for each transcript requested above the 5 original. As an example, 7 transcripts = $27.00 ($25.00 for
the first 5, then $1.00 each for the additional 2). Transcripts will not be issued until payment is received.
Holds:
Transcript requests for students with outstanding financial obligations to the University will not be processed
until the obligation has been met.
Anchor Club Members:
Anchor Club members of the Alumni Association receive certificates for up to three free transcripts a year. For
