We heavily discourage transcript requests submitted via phone call or voicemail. Specific information must be articulated in a transcript request and voicemails leave a significant room for error. Transcript Request submitted via Phone Call or Voicemail will also have a significant delay in fulfillment time. All time-sensitive transcript requests should be submitted via email or requested in-person. Transcript Request submitted via Phone Call or Voicemail over the summer will not be fulfilled until the end of August.
