Registrar
Looking for a copy of your transcripts or can’t find your diploma? We’re here to help.
Our Services
The Registrar's Office at Holy Cross maintains, interprets and communicates academic policy and procedures to students, faculty and the public. Services include enrollment, registration, monitoring of academic and administrative policies related to the academic record, processing transcript requests, classroom management and auditing of student progress toward degree completion. The office also verifies student enrollment for insurance companies, veterans benefits and loan deferments.
Transcripts
An official transcript will be issued either with the written consent of the student or by electronic request made through the National Student Clearinghouse. Transcript requests cannot be accepted over the phone. No transcripts are sent by email, and transcripts may not be released in the case of a Bursar Transcript Hold. All official transcripts bear the signature of the Registrar of the College, and paper official transcripts also bear the Seal of the College.
To obtain an electronic transcript, submit a request through the National Student Clearinghouse.

Paper transcripts are available for all class years and may be requested by submitting a request through the National Student Clearinghouse (service fee applies) or by using the Holy Cross Transcript Request form (no fee).
