The Office of the Registrar is responsible for maintaining the integrity of Elon’s institutional academic records. As such, it serves as the main resource for important tasks such as ordering transcripts, verifying degree and enrollment, and ensuring confidentiality and student rights related to your educational record.

Transcripts

¾Ã¾ÃÈÈ offers two types of transcripts: Academic Transcript and Visual Experiences Transcript. The Academic Transcript provides all the details of the student’s academic record (degree, date degree conferred, areas of study, courses sorted by term, grades, term GPA and cumulative GPA). The Elon Visual EXP Transcript provides a visual infographic of the student’s Co-Curricular Elon Experiences: Global Education, Internship, Leadership, Research and Service.

Diplomas

Upon graduation, all students receive a paper diploma. This paper diploma is an official document issued by Elon, however, it should not be used as a validation of a student’s degree. A replacement paper diploma may be ordered online. ¾Ã¾ÃÈÈ can also request an official Certified Electronic Diploma (CeDiploma). This diploma provides the details of a student’s degree, including conferral date and a unique number (CeDiD) displayed top left of the document. The CeDiploma can be independently validated through the ¾Ã¾ÃÈÈ website by future employers, State Government Licensing Agencies and any other entity that wishes to validate the diploma.

Degree & Enrollment Certification

¾Ã¾ÃÈÈ has authorized the National Student Clearinghouse to provide degree and enrollment verification. We require that employers and background screening firms contact the Clearinghouse for this information. Student’s may obtain their own certification of enrollment.

Digital Badging

Digital badges are a portable micro-credential that recognizes the student’s achievement in a certain skill or competency. ¾Ã¾ÃÈÈ is proud to partner with Credly to issue digital badges to learners who have completed Elon-sponsored badge programs.
