HOW TO REQUEST TRANSCRIPTS
Are you a current student? Go to your college or university portal to request a transcript.
Are you no longer a student at the school? Contact the registrar/records office or visit its website. Most schools have an online transcript request process.

National Student Clearinghouse Checks
The University of Toledo cross checks all admission transfer and adult applications with the National Student Clearinghouse. We verify if you attended any higher education institutions in the past. If needed, we edit your application to show any institutions not listed by you on your application. We will notify you if you are missing transcripts. No admission decision will be made until we receive all necessary documents.
Priority Application Deadlines
UToledo applications received by the priority application deadline receive priority consideration for merit scholarships. We will still accept applications beyond these deadlines. But it's in your best interest to apply well before your admission term deadline.
