Students can request unofficial and official transcripts through the Admissions and Records Office. Transcripts from previously attended post-secondary institutions can also be submitted to TMCC for credit evaluation.
Learn more about ordering and submitting transcripts to TMCC below.
High school, GED and high school equivalency transcripts are not required for course registration unless you are 17 years old or younger, applying for financial aid, or have recent ACT/SAT scores on your transcripts. An official transcript may also be required to change to degree-seeking at TMCC or if requested by the Admissions office for the TMCC high school and GED audit.
Submitting High School transcripts, GED/High School Equivalency (HSE)
Official high school transcripts, GED or high school equivalency transcripts can be submitted to the Admissions and Records office in person, via mail, or electronically via the Admissions and Records Contact Page.
To be considered official, physical transcripts must be in sealed school envelopes containing the proper signatures, dates, and institutional seals (as applicable). If submitted electronically, transcripts must be sent directly from the institution.
College or university transcripts are not required for admission to TMCC; they are only necessary if you request transfer credit for individual classes. You must have a degree declared in order to proceed with an evaluation for transfer credit.
Submitting Transcripts from Post-Secondary Institutions

Submitting International Transcripts
Please schedule an appointment to meet with an International Academic Advisor to determine whether you may have credits from a prior institution outside the U.S. that may transfer to TMCC. It is preferred that you have an unofficial copy of your transcript for this appointment.
After your appointment, request a course-by-course evaluation from one of the following services. Make sure to select “Course by Course” as the report type and request that it be sent to TMCC.
Note: Course-by-course evaluations from other National Associate of Credential Evaluation Services (NACES®) members provisioning comparable services may be accepted.

Transfer courses are evaluated for general transferability by the Admissions and Records office. Accepted courses at the university level may or may not apply toward a student's degree program. You must have a degree declared in order to proceed with an evaluation for transfer credit. For more information, consult the Transfer Credit Policy.
Credit Evaluation for Transfer Students Form
Submitting the Credit Evaluation for Transfer Students Form is the only way to have your transfer credit evaluated officially and added to your MyTMCC account. Transcripts sent from NSHE Institutions (UNR, UNLV, GBC, WNC, CSN) do not require a Credit Evaluation for Transfer Form to be evaluated.
Once your transfer credits have been evaluated, you will see the courses in your MyTMCC Student Center on the transfer credit report, in your course history, and in your academic advisement report. Evaluation for transfer credit may take 4-6 weeks to process. Transfer credits will not appear on your TMCC transcript.
Current students may view and print unofficial transcripts using MyTMCC (log in to your Student Center). If you are not a current student and need to request an unofficial transcript, please contact Admissions and Records for assistance.
Official TMCC transcripts can be sent to other NSHE Institutions (UNR, UNLV, GBC, WNC, CSN) free of charge. Complete the online Transcript Request Form.
Official TMCC transcripts being sent to all other colleges and universities can be ordered through the National Student Clearinghouse. These orders can be set up to be received directly by the student, an employer, or an institution. There is a fee associated with this request. Important: Ensure you are selecting the non-NSHE transcript order option.
Rush official transcripts can be ordered in person at the Admissions and Records office in Red Mountain 319 on the Dandini Campus for same-day pickup. These transcripts are stamped “Issued to Student.”
Note: A rush processing fee of $8.25 must be paid at the Cashier’s office at the time of your request. Checks must be made payable to The Board of Regents.
