official transcript
Sealed grade document
An official transcript is a certified academic record issued directly by an educational institution, documenting courses taken, grades earned, and degrees conferred.
The "official" designation means the document bears institutional authentication—typically a seal, signature, or secure delivery—distinguishing it from unofficial copies a student might print themselves.
Employers and graduate programs usually require official transcripts sent directly from the issuing school: The admissions office won't accept unofficial transcripts.
