You will be automatically provided with a hard copy transcript when you graduate, as well as access to a digital copy through My eQuals.
If you need to request a hard copy transcript for reasons other than those outlined below, these can take 10 to 15 working days to produce and a fee may be charged.
Transcripts or certificates will not be available digitally if you:
- Studied prior to 1977
- Studied at the Dunedin College of Education prior to 2007
- Studied Kindergarten study prior to 1974
In these instances, you will need to request a hard copy academic transcript. These transcripts are free of charge (postage or courier fees still apply) and may take 10 to 15 working days to process.
Contact AskOtago if you wish to request a hard copy transcript.
If you receive a request for an academic transcript for students who studied between 1977 and 1993, complete ID verification and assign it to the SE – Records Management queue. Advise the student that their query is currently with the Student Records team.
If the student studied at the Dunedin College of Education prior to 2007, they will not be able to be IDed in eVision, so collect the ID points and assign to the SE – Records Management queue.
If My eQuals is not accepted, and a hard copy transcript is requested, the cost is NZ$40 plus any postage, per transcript. Note that this information is not advertised publicly, and the service is only offered in limited circumstances.
