Records

We maintain permanent academic records for UC Berkeley Extension students who have completed credit courses, and noncredit courses numbered 800-899, and for students who ask us to record their noncredit continuing education unit (ceu) study.

Requesting a Transcript

Please allow 10 business days to process and mail your transcript(s), from the time we receive your request. (During our peak period, November-March, fulfillment may take up to 15 business days.) If you need your transcript(s) mailed sooner, you must specify rush service. Rush service ensures that your transcript(s) will be mailed within one business day after the receipt of your request. All transcripts are sent via First Class U.S. Mail.

A Note About Privacy

The UC Berkeley Extension Dean's Office is responsible for maintaining Extension student records, and any questions about them should be addressed to the Dean's Office in writing. The policy governing the disclosure of information from student records is available at http://campuspol.chance.berkeley.edu/policies/studentrecdisclosure.pdf. The policy provides for the right of students to be informed about where student records are located, to review their own records, to request corrections, to grieve alleged violations of privacy, to consent to disclosures of personally identifiable information, and to file complaints with the U.S. Department of Education. The Dean's Office has designated student names, terms of attendance, major fields of study, and certificates earned as directory information under the policy; please note that Extension's directory information is more restricted than that for matriculated students.
