Custom Transcripts

Populi gives you two options when exporting a student's transcript:

  • An unofficial transcript, which just recounts the student's academic record.
  • An official transcript, which usually requires a signature from the registrar and has been requested by another school.

Both transcript types have their own HTML print layouts. You can use the built-in version or ask us to customize them for your school. Here's the run-down:

The process

If you'd like a custom transcript for your school...

  1. Contact Populi customer support and let us know you'd like a custom transcript layout.
    • Or, if you are skilled at HTML and CSS, you can work on the HTML layouts yourself (and skip the remaining steps).
  2. In your request, provide us with the following:
    • A .docx or PDF of the transcript you'd like us to set up.
    • If the transcript contains any logos, background images, or signature images, provide those in .PNG format (without backgrounds, if possible).
  3. When we're ready for you to take a look at it, we'll let you know. You'll find it in Communications > Print Layouts.
  4. Print a transcript. After looking over the transcript, get back to us with comments and revisions—"make that margin wider", "we have a different fax number", etc.—using the support request you opened when you first asked for the custom transcript.
  5. We'll repeat this process until you're happy with it.

    I simply want to access my transcript, no custom transcript.  Thanks

    Shirley,

    When you're logged in to Populi, click My Profile. Then, click the Student tab. You'll see your transcript right there. You can also click the gear button in the upper right and select "Export Transcript" to download it to your computer.

    Is there a way that a note can be added automatically to the bottom of our official transcript stating that a student has completed a program and a degree has been conferred?
