How to Request an Official Transcript
Please read and follow all instructions to avoid delays in processing your transcript.
Official copies of your transcript must be ordered through Parchment. Click here to begin your order. Enter the required information and follow each step to complete your order. Important note: we will search for your records using the legal name you had when you were a student, so please include any alternate (such as as maiden) names. If you have any questions or problems, please either contact Parchment's customer support or the registrar's office at (318) 869-5146 or registrar@centenary.edu.
Transcript requests are usually processed at least once a day M-F, except during holidays or school closures. Transcript requests received during registration, grade reporting, and graduation periods will be processed immediately following the conclusion of peak time frames. It is also possible to order a transcript that will mail at the conclusion of the semester (select "hold until grades are posted"). Each electronic (emailed PDF) transcript copy is $10, as are pick-up orders. Mailed copies are $12.50.
How to Obtain an Unofficial Transcript
Unofficial transcripts are intended for personal use. If you need to send your transcript to another person or organization, please order an official transcript.
Students and Alumni with BannerWeb accounts can view, print, and save unofficial transcripts. After logging into BannerWeb, click on Student Self Service. Then click on View Unofficial Transcript. You will be able to view all credit hours earned at Centenary and all accepted transfer credits. To print, click on the three dots (in Chrome) or the three lines (in Firefox) in the upper-right corner and select Print from the menu (or simply press CTRL+P). To save, follow the same steps as printing, but in the dialog box that pops up, change your Destination from your printer to Save as PDF.
Important note: BannerWeb underwent a significant change in Summer 2021. Rather than using your Student ID# and PIN to log in, you will use your Centenary email address and password. This means that if you are not a current student or did not graduate from Centenary, you will need to order an official copy. If you are an alum but do not remember your email address and password, you can order an official copy, or you can request a password reset from our IT department (submit a service request here or email itsupport@centenary.edu).
