Students who will be attending the University of Pittsburgh do not need to request a transcript to transfer their earned CHS credits. Their coursework will already appear on a transcript with the University. However, if students are attending Pitt and have college credits from other institutions, they can visit the Pitt Transfer Tool for additional information.
Requesting Transcripts
Place your transcript request on or after July 1st. Waiting until this date will ensure that teachers have submitted all grades for processing. If you need to request your transcript before July 1st, select the “Hold For Grades” option in the "When do you want this sent?" box. This will ensure a blank transcript will not be sent.
All students may request a copy of their transcript for their records. Only seniors who are attending an academic institution in the fall need to request one. Most academic institutions prefer the transcript sent directly to their address.
For a small fee, the University of Pittsburgh offers an online transcript ordering and delivery system. Transcripts can be easily ordered as secure PDFs (e-transcripts) to be transmitted electronically, or be sent by mail, or by rush delivery. Alternatively, a free transcript may be obtained in person at the University Registrar’s Office (G-3 Thackeray Hall).
For more information on how to order or pick up a transcript, please see the following guides provided by the Office of the University Registrar. There is a guide for creating an account here, and a guide for ordering your transcript here. If you run into any technical issues, please call or email the Office of the University Registrar at 412-624-7635 / transcert@registrar.pitt.edu.

Transferring CHS Credit
College in High School students can search transfer policies of over 900 US college and universities through the University of Connecticut's Early College Experience Credit Transfer Database. This database provides information regarding the likelihood of successful concurrent enrollment credit transfer. This likelihood is calculated based on institutions' past policies concerning concurrent enrollment transfer credits.
