           NOTICE: The fee for an electronic transcript will increase to $2.68 on February 13, 2024.

Unofficial transcripts (for attendees since September 1984) can also be viewed and printed through myBanner.

Electronic Transcript Request

Grand Valley is now offering electronic official transcripts through Parchment for a processing fee of $2.55 per transcript. As of Feb. 13, 2024 the fee for an electronic transcript increases to $2.68.

To request an electronic transcript, log into your student records through your myBanner account.  Requesting through your myBanner account is fast and easy.  For help with your myBanner account, please contact Records at (616) 331-3327.  Follow the prompts to create your Parchment account and make your request.

If you attended before GVSU assigned myBanner accounts, you can gain access to your myBanner account by contacting Records at (616) 331-3327. 

An alternative for students who attended before GVSU assigned myBanner accounts is to request your official electronic transcript through Parchment's Ordering Services.  Additional processing time may be required.

Printed paper transcripts will continue to be available through your myBanner account at no charge.

Many transcript recipients require an electronic transcript be sent directly from GVSU in order for the transcript to be considered official. We recommend contacting the recipient to determine if they will accept a transcript as official that is forwarded from your email.
