Transcripts will display all coursework and degrees received while in attendance at Lehigh University. Transcript orders must be submitted via the internet, regardless of when you attended Lehigh University. All financial obligations must be cleared with the Bursar before your transcript can be released. Please check your online transcript before ordering to make sure the semester grades have been posted.  For an overview of the transcript process, please view this transcript ordering guide.

Student Grade Reports

Student Grade Reports reflect a student's course and grade history for a specific term. Students who need to obtain a Student Grade Report for personal use or for employer reimbursement can generate reports as needed by going to https://go.lehigh.edu/studentgradereport. Follow the instructions to generate your grade report. The report will be issued to your Lehigh email account in PDF format within 15 minutes of the submission of your request. If you are not on campus you will need to remotely connect to Lehigh's VPN. To learn more abou what a VPN is and get instructions on how to set it up go to https://lts.lehigh.edu/services/vpn.  

Please Note: A Student Grade Report is not the same as an official transcript. Students who need an official record of their course history must request an official transcript by following the request process outlined above.
