How to view and export student transcripts
Continue below for the article from Populi.
The transcript is your school's official record of the student's completed and in-progress coursework. You'll find it on a student's Profile > Student view.
- Transcripts are organized around the student's academic programs.
- Various items that appear on transcripts (discipline, for example) are controlled by your selections in Academics > Settings.
- If you're using Populi to track clinical hours, this article explains how they appear on the transcript.
What's on the transcript
Here's a look at what the web view of the transcript looks includes (it differs some from the printed version):
- Use the program drop-down to see the transcript for individual programs, or to see courses that aren't mapped to any programs (None). If you wish to apply unmapped courses to one of the student's programs, use the Course Mapping tool.
- Each program's transcript leads off with a summary of the student's degree(s) in that program.
- Then it summarizes the cumulative resident, transfer, and overall credits/hours, grade points, and GPA.
- If a disciplinary action was recorded for the student in this program, you'll see a note to that effect.
- Resident courses are shown in reverse chronological order (the most recent term is at the top). Each term includes any discipline and honors together with term and cumulative GPA. Click to see a pop-up with any course comments left by the faculty.
- Finally, it summarizes any accepted transfer courses.
