Registrar Transcripts & Student Records

Order an official transcript

We issue transcripts for Bethel University in St. Paul, Minnesota. Our institution was formerly Bethel College and Seminary in St. Paul, Minnesota. Additional Seminary campuses were Bethel Seminary San Diego and Bethel Seminary of the East.

You can order both electronic and paper versions of your transcript online. Transcripts sent directly to a recipient other than the student are considered official upon delivery but become unofficial if passed on to another recipient. Transcripts sent to the student are considered unofficial unless you order a mailed copy that remains in the sealed envelope. If you open it, the transcript is no longer official.

Order an official transcript via Parchment
