Transcripts

For the most specific information about Transcripts, please go to our Admissions & Records site

Official transcripts of a student's academic records can be sent to colleges, universities, employers and other institutions upon a formal request of the student. Transcripts may be requested using the student WebSMART account. On WebSMART, under "Student Records," find "Request Official Transcript" link for this purpose. All courses completed or in progress at Cañada College, College of San Mateo, and/or Skyline College appear on the transcript. Transcripts from high school and other colleges are not forwarded from CSM to other institutions because our district colleges are authorized to send San Mateo County Community College transcripts only. Students may request official copies to be sent to them by noting "issue to student." Transcripts may also be requested directly from the Office of Admissions and Records, Building 1, Second Floor, and there is a downloadable form at: collegeofsanmateo.edu/forms. The form may be submitted in person, by mail, or faxed to the Office of Admissions and Records using fax number 574-6506. The first two official transcripts requested by a student are free; thereafter a charge of $5 for each transcript is imposed. If a student wants a transcript processed immediately there is an additional "rush" service charge of $10.

The transcript request must include the student's current name, a former name if used while attending College of San Mateo, the CSM student identification number or social security number, birth date, approximate dates of attendance, and the complete address to which the transcript is to be mailed. The student signature is required.

Students may access unofficial transcripts on their Student Web SMART account. This Web SMART transcript reflects courses taken during or after Summer 1981.
