Order Transcript

Please note: Official transcript requests are processed within 7-10 BUSINESS days.

ALL transcripts are sent via regular U.S. mail.  We are currently unable to provide rush transcripts.

We do not currently have the ability to issue official, electronic transcripts.

If you are a current student, you may access your unofficial transcript via SMURF at any time. Alumni who graduated after 2010 should also be able to access SMURF. If you have issues accessing SMURF, please contact the IT Service Desk at 510-907-2555 (option 1).

If you completed your program before 2010 and absolutely need an unofficial transcript at this time, please send an email to ascher@samuelmerritt.edu (Anne Scher, Registrar), and I will be happy to assist you.

We thank you for your patience during this time.
