Revision No. 2505 on May 1, 2025
1. Purpose
This policy outlines the State of Enrollment for Richmindale
College Students. This policy requires oversight by persons
academically qualified to make necessary judgements.
2. Scope
This policy applies to all Richmindale students.
3. Policy
The issuance of Official and Unofficial Transcripts requires an
official request from the student using the Transcript Request
Form to authorize the release of the transcripts. Although
unofficial transcripts can be downloaded from the Student Portal,
these requests apply to students who have completed their degree
program and do not have access to the Student Portal anymore.
Richmindale College may not release transcripts to students who
have outstanding financial obligations, or academic or
administrative issues.
In case another person requests the copy of the Transcript on
behalf of the student, the student must provide the necessary
information of the authorized person in the "Authorization" field
of the Transcript Request Form. The person authorized by the
student must present a valid identification document with a photo
and signature to claim the Transcript. A valid identification must
be a government-issued document such as passport, drivers’
license, etc.
Richmindale issues one original copy (digital or hard copy) of
Official Transcripts to each student free of charge, upon request.
Transcript request fee may apply for each additional copy (digital
and hard copy). See the Other Fees section under
Tuition and Fees for more details about transcript request
charges.
Transcript Request Procedure
Students may request a copy of their Official or Unofficial
Transcript online through the Richmindale College website,
electronic mail, or personal visit to the Richmindale College
office. The procedure is as follows:

in a web browser to directly go to the page.
✓
Fill out the Transcript Request Form, and click the submit
button.

If the student specifies that the Transcript should be sent by
courier, the student must enter the delivery address and pay
the delivery cost.
✓
In case another person receives the Transcript on behalf of
the student, the student must clearly indicate the name of the
authorized person on the space provided in the Transcript
Request Form.

It normally takes within 10 business days for Richmindale
College to process the Transcript request.
