Admissions and Records

Transcripts

The Admissions & Records Office prepares and permanently retains a record of each student’s academic work. Currently, only coursework taken at Fullerton College will be shown on the transcript. Transfer credits are included only if other college coursework has been used to fulfill graduation requirements.

The first two transcripts (lifetime) a student requests are FREE.

In accordance with the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974 (FERPA), records may not be released to a third party without the prior written authorization of the student. A valid picture ID of the student or authorized person is required for ALL transactions made in person.

PLEASE NOTE: Be advised that there may be a delay in processing mailed-out transcripts, as well as processing transcript requests with records prior to the Fall of 1989.

Fullerton College has contracted with Parchment to provide transcript ordering, printing, and delivery.
Your transcript request is securely linked to the Parchment System, which provides transcripts through an encrypted and secure service.

Current & former students and alumni can request a transcript online virtually anywhere using the Parchment order form.
Payment must be made by debit or credit card.


If you need your transcript quickly, it is highly recommended that you choose the PDF option.
It can take up to 10 business days from the day your order is completed for you to receive a transcript sent via 1st class mail.

However, please be aware that when sending a PDF transcript to yourself, it cannot then be forwarded to a different email address.
Forwarding a PDF transcript makes it unofficial.
If your transcript is going to a third party, you should have it sent directly to their email address.
This ensures that the transcript will still be considered an official Fullerton College document.

Transcript and Parchment FAQs

Sending your college transcripts to Fullerton College?

Official transcripts from other colleges attended are kept on file in the Admissions and Records Office for a maximum of 5 years. If you have completed college work since you last attended, or have been absent for more than five years, have your official transcripts mailed to the Fullerton College Admissions & Records Office immediately if pursuing a degree or transfer certification.

Send Electronically to:

transcript@fullcoll.edu

Mail to:
Fullerton College
Admissions & Records Office
321 East Chapman Ave
Fullerton, CA 92832

 

Official electronic transcripts must be sent directly from the school or the school’s 3rd party vendor to place your transcripts on file.

When other college transcripts are received they are not automatically evaluated. Students must initiate a request to have their other college transcripts evaluated by a Fullerton College counselor.
