Grades and Transcripts

Grades

Grades are available online the Wednesday after finals week. You may print an unofficial grade report off of the Web by going to OSU Online Services.

You will need to enter your OSU ID number, a nine-digit number that is assigned to you when you are admitted to OSU, and your GAP number. Once you are logged in, you can click on Student Records, followed by Final Grades. You will need to select the appropriate term, and click Submit. All courses you took, with the grade you received should be listed. If for some reason you did not receive the grade you expected and you believe there is an error, please email your instructor.

It is important to meet the deadlines for all course work set in your course syllabus. If you foresee any difficulties with due dates or run into problems, contact your instructor immediately.

Incompletes

Beginning fall term, 2007, incomplete ("I") grades will be accompanied by an alternate letter grade. Students with "I/Alternate" grades must work with their instructors to resolve the incomplete according to a timeline negotiated with the instructor.  If a timeline does not exist, the student has one year to resolve the incomplete.  If at the end of the year the student has not finished the coursework, the alternate grade will replace the incomplete as the final grade for the course. For a detailed explanation, please see Revised "Incomplete" Grade Policy on the Registrar's homepage.

Transcripts

The OSU Registrar's Office maintains student academic records. Official copies (transcripts) of these records are available upon written consent of students, providing the student's financial account balance is up to date.

Unofficial transcripts

Unofficial transcripts for students enrolled Fall 1991 or later are available via the Web through Student Online Services or may be obtained from any of the campus kiosks. Kiosks are located in Kerr Admin Building, Memorial Union, Valley Library, Kidder Hall, Dixon Recreation Center and LaSells Stewart Center. Unofficial transcripts do not contain details of transfer work as accepted by OSU.

Unofficial transcripts are not available for students enrolled prior to Fall Term 1991.

Official transcripts

Official transcripts contain a summary of transfer credit and detailed course information for OSU credits. Official transcripts mailed to the student are enclosed in a sealed envelope. The transcripts retain their official status as long as the inner envelope is not opened. Transcripts cannot be faxed.

To find out how to obtain official transcripts, please see OSU Office of the Registrar Transcripts.
