STUDENT TRANSCRIPT/VERIFICATION REQUEST FORM
Use this form to request a student transcript or student verification of attendance for a Private Business and Vocational School
(PBVS) in Illinois that is no longer providing academic instruction. We cannot confirm over the phone that we have records
for a specific student. We cannot verify over the phone education or graduation dates. Transcripts are processed on a first-
come, first served basis. This applies to all requests, regardless of how they reach us. Requests are logged in a queue and are
filled in that order. For that reason, walk-in requests will not be processed while the person waits.
Fees: There is a $10 charge for each transcript or verification requested. The fee can be paid via check, money order,
or cashier’s check. NO CASH. IBHE requires a RETURN ADDRESSED, STAMPED BUSINESS SIZE #10
ENVELOPE for ALL transcript requests. *Please note that payments made by check may delay processing time.
