CUNE DUAL CREDIT TRANSCRIPT INFORMATION 

Dual Credit students may request a CUNE transcript be sent to a college or university by clicking here:  www.cune.edu/transcripts. (Parents may not request transcripts, it must be the student who is requesting his/her own transcript.) An unofficial transcript is one that is sent to your own address, but the process is the same.

Enter your email and continue to the next page.

Enter all required fields and create an account, and continue. In the box that says ‘Highest Level of Education’ enter ‘Currently Enrolled in College. (Save this information somewhere for the future!)

Please use a personal email address that you check regularly now and will have access to in the future. 

When asked for a Student ID, you can either enter your Social Security Number or your CUNE ID number 

Some additional information to note:

Transcripts typically need to be sent directly to an institution's registrar's office or office of student advising in order to be considered official. You can also choose to have a transcript sent to yourself for your own records--this is considered an unofficial transcript and will not usually be accepted as an official record by an institution if you attempt to send it from your own email address. The cost is $10.00. If you have troubles, there is a phone number on the transcript webpage that reaches the Registrar’s Office directly. They will be helpful if you hit any glitches!
