WPI has contracted with Parchment to manage transcript orders. All transcript requests should be made online using the instructions below.
Please note that official transcripts through Parchment now include the 2021 A term for student who were registered during that term.
Placing Your Order
All students and alumni can submit a transcript request through the WPI Parchment Portal:
- Provide either your WPI ID number or your Social Security Number. Forgot your WPI Student ID?
- You can check the status of your order any time by clicking the "My Orders" link in your Parchment Order Confirmation email.
Once you submit the online form, you will receive email confirmations of your order. If there is a transcript-impacting hold on your account, then your order will be automatically canceled and any payment will be refunded. Please review your email for a cancelation notice to determine the appropriate WPI office to contact to resolve your hold. Once your hold is resolved, then you may resubmit your request via Parchment.
Cost
$5.00 per transcript to be paid by credit card using Parchment.
Delivery Options and Processing Time
Regular Mail: Paper hardcopy transcripts will be processed within 3-5 business days and shipped using USPS.

Secure PDF Orders (student left WPI prior to 2008): For students who left WPI or finished their degree prior to 2008, electronic PDF transcripts must be manually processed from prior digital academic databases and will be released within 3-5 business days.

Electronic Transcript (PDF) Certificate of Authenticity
WPI has appointed Parchment as the designated agent for processing and sending official electronic transcripts on behalf of WPI. The PDF transcript that is produced using this service contains the identical information as the printed transcript. Parchment has been granted the authority to deliver all such electronic transcript requests on behalf of WPI. If needed, once a student or alumnus has submitted a request, they may access Parchment support online via their Parchment dashboard.
Electronic transcripts are not currently available for students who completed their studies at WPI prior to 2008.
Retrieving Your WPI Student ID Number
Students who have forgotten their WPI Student ID may send a written request to the Office of the Registrar.
We will accept requests via fax to 508-831-5931 or via PDF to registrar@wpi.edu.
In the written request, include your:
- Full name
- Dates of attendance
- A legible copy of a picture ID
- Your signature - Electronic signatures will not be accepted.
- The address, email address, or fax number to which you'd like the Student ID to be sent.
