Transcripts & Education Verifications

Education Verifications

The Colorado State University System includes three separate institutions:

  • Colorado State University – Fort Collins
  • Colorado State University – Pueblo
  • Colorado State University Global – Denver

Each CSU campus maintains separate records. Request education verifications from the correct campus. CSU Fort Collins verifies both on-campus and CSU Online students. CSU Online is not the same as CSU Global. Incorrect requests will be denied and may cause delays.

Be sure to select the correct campus to ensure accurate education verification results.

Transcript Hold

If you have a hold preventing the release of transcripts and your outstanding debt to CSU is due to unpaid tuition, room and board, or returned financial aid, that debt must be paid in full. This hold will be removed once the amount owed is reduced to zero and the hold has been cleared from your account.

A waiver to temporarily lift this hold may be requested if you meet one of the following criteria:

  • The transcript is required for a job application
  • The transcript is required for the military (Active Duty, National Guard, or Reserves)
  • The transcript is required for a financial aid application (federal, state, or institutional)
  • The transcript is required to apply to another college or university
  • The transcript is required to apply for other post-secondary opportunities

 

If you have an eligible hold that can be removed and your transcript released, you will be prompted on the ordering page to request a waiver. You must provide:

  • Your student ID
  • Full name
  • A copy of the application document listed above demonstrating the requirement for a transcript.

If granted, the waiver will be in effect only for as long as it takes to generate the requested transcript. Request your waiver by going to RAMweb or RAMrecords and enter the Official Transcript page under Records in the student menu.
