7.10.1.	Eligibility to Graduate



You may request an official transcript by completing, signing, and submitting a Transcript Request Form (included in your learning resources package) and fee. No partial transcripts are issued and transcripts are only issued to the student making the request. Most institutions or agencies require that official transcripts be sent directly from Athabasca University. Once your marks are received by the Office of the Registrar, please allow two weeks to one month for the receipt of a transcript. The transcript contains a student's entire Athabasca University record including:
•	current program of study and the associated total transfer credit awarded
•	non-credit courses completed at Athabasca University
•	grade-point average
•	course names and numbers, number of credits awarded
•	the final grade and corresponding 4-point grade value
•	the grade points and credit hours earned with each registration
•	the term date (year, month course started)
•	courses challenged for credit (noted with “CH”) including unsuccessful Challenges
•	reregistrations (noted with “R”) and repeated courses
•	suspensions and expulsions
•	graduation with distinction or great distinction.

7.10.1.	Eligibility to Graduate Athabasca University holds convocation ceremonies in June of each year, or December, in absentia. Students may complete their degree, diploma, or certificate requirements any time throughout the year. Students must formally apply to graduate. After the Office of the Registrar verifies that students have fulfilled all the degree, diploma, or certificate program requirements, an official notation is placed on the transcript issued before the degree, diploma, or certificate is awarded. Students who require Athabasca University transcripts to graduate from another institution, must clearly indicate this requirement on their transcript request. It may be necessary to hold the transcript pending final grade submission for a particular Athabasca University course.
