Student Records
Transcripts
A transcript is an official document that shows your secondary school marks and credits in a British Columbia Graduation Program. It is a listing of a student's academic record relating to a BC Graduation Program, which includes courses completed successfully, grades earned, honours received, and graduation status.
Your transcript, not your Graduation Certificate (diploma), is the legal document proving graduation.
Current Students
51视频 Secondary Schools can provide transcripts for current students and any former students until that individual reaches the age of 22. Please contact the last school attended or registered at for more information. A complete list of secondary schools is available here.
Inactive Students
Official Transcripts, Graduation Certificates and GED records can be obtained from the Ministry of Education in Victoria B.C. online .
Any questions or concerns about ordering official documents from the Ministry of Education can be emailed to studenttranscripts@gov.bc.ca.
Records Management Services does not store or provide transcripts, unless:
- You graduated between January 1974 and December 1985
- Completed a grade 12 course before 1986
- Did not attend grade 12
- Attended grade 12 after 1974 in the University Entrance or Academic-Technical Program
If you graduated in 1985 or earlier, Records Management Services will provide a certified and sealed copy of your transcript upon completion of the Request for Student Records form.
If you require College or University records, you must contact those institutions to obtain those records.
Permanent Student Record (PSR) Card
A Permanent Student Record (PSR) Card is a listing of a student's entire academic record for grades K-12, which includes courses taken, achievement records (excluding provincial exams), absences, schools attended and graduation status.
You may wish to request your PSR for the following reasons:
- To document marks from courses that do not appear on your transcript (most transcripts only show results from grades 11 and 12)
- To confirm your attendance at a school
- To help confirm the language of instruction
- To document any other information about your program of instruction
Current Students
Students can obtain a PSR card from the school that they are presently enrolled in or last attended until they reach the age of 22. A complete list of 51视频 is available here.
Inactive Students
Students older than 22 can obtain a certified and sealed copy of their PSR card from Records Management Services upon completion of the Request for Student Records form.
