Official Transcripts
Official Transcripts
through the National Student Clearinghouse.
We only send hard copy/paper transcripts (not electronic), which are mailed out via USPS.
Each transcript costs $5.40 and you can pay when you order online with a credit or debit card. Rush processing and/or Express mailing can be selected for an additional fee.
University transcripts reflect the student鈥檚 legal name in the university database as it was while attending 国产剧麻豆剧. Students who wish to change their legal name and have this change reflected on their academic transcript must submit a change of name request to the Office of Records with legal proof of the name change (e.g. government i.d. passport, driver's license, court document). Click on this link for the form.
Please be sure you do not have any outstanding financial balance before ordering your transcripts as a financial hold will affect grades shown on your transcript for any period with an outstanding balance. If you are unsure of your financial status, please follow the next steps to determine if you have a financial hold or not. If you took graduate courses or courses through the Adult Accelerated Undergraduate Programs not on the Point Loma Campus, contact the Office of Student Financial Services at gpssfs@pointloma.edu or (619) 563-2882.
Please note that if you attended prior to 1980, transcripts are archived and take additional processing time. Archived records require an approximate 4 week processing time and cannot be rush processed.
Please note that if you attended prior to Fall 2015, for any type of transcript order (normal, rush, or express) three additional business days may be required in addition to the stated normal processing times.

Diplomas
NOTICE:
Due to the discontinuation of our previous diploma printing vendor, we are in the process of establishing services with a new provider. This transition has taken longer than anticipated, significantly extending the usual turnaround time of 11-13 weeks from the posting of your degree to the ordering of your diploma. We apologize for any inconvenience and understand your desire to receive your diploma as quickly as possible.
Please note that your official academic transcript serves as verification of your degree. Additionally, we can provide a letter of degree verification upon request. To accommodate for the delay in diploma orders, we are offering a two-day turnaround for degree verification letters, instead of the usual five business days.
We anticipate being able to place diploma orders by mid-July. Orders will be processed based on the date of conferral, giving priority to those who have been waiting the longest.
Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Replica Diplomas
Replica Diplomas
Graduates of 国产剧麻豆剧 receive only one official diploma, but we understand sometimes important documents can be misplaced, lost, or damaged. For these unfortunate situations, we offer a replica diploma.
A replica diploma certifies, under the 国产剧麻豆剧 name and with the signature of current Board of Trustee officers and administrators, that the individual graduated from the institution. For alumni who graduated prior to the university name change, the name of the original institution granting the degree will be specified in the text on the replica diploma (e.g., 鈥渙riginally conferred by Pasadena College鈥).
Policies for Replica Diplomas
- Only one official diploma is issued per degree earned at Pasadena College/Point Loma College/Point Loma Nazarene College/国产剧麻豆剧, so this is only a replica and not a replacement diploma.
- The charge for a replica diploma is $45. This amount covers the production of the replica and standard mailing costs within the U.S. For international mailing, please contact the records office regarding pricing (records@pointloma.edu).
- Currently, due to transition to a new diploma vendor, processing and mailing for replica diplomas is approximately 10 weeks. Orders will be processed as quickly as possible. If you need verification of your earned degree in the meantime, please submit a verification request form (see links on the right side of the page), and we can send a letter of degree verification, or you may order an official transcript which is the official record of the degree earned (click on the Official Transcript at the top of this section).
- The name printed on the replica will be the official name under which you attended and is stored in the institutional database. If you wish to use another name, please submit a form to the records office prior to ordering your replica diploma
- All requests for a replica diploma must be submitted by the graduate through our .
