Students Enrolled in Fall 2002 to Spring 2019

You may request a transcript in person at the One Stop or via Secure Upload for no processing fee if enrolled at SUNY Potsdam in Fall 2002 to Spring 2019. Transcripts requested using this option will be processed on the second and fourth Wednesday of each month. The transcript will be mailed directly to the student.
