A transcript is an official record of the courses, credits, and grades that you have earned at Cornell University.  The Office of the University Registrar, B-7 Day Hall, issues official academic transcripts. 
Request your transcript online.   

Transfer students are required to complete all degree requirements with at least 60 credits at Cornell University. Thus, a maximum of 60 hours in transfer credit, for courses passed at "C" or above, may be allowed from other accredited colleges or universities.

• In the Core, transfer credit may be allowed only against courses that closely parallel those in the Hotel School.
• Hotel Elective courses may not transfer.
• Distributive Electives (18 credits) and Free Electives (21 credits) may transfer in their entirety.
• Courses taken in a high school, even if they are on a college transcript, will not transfer.

The Hotel School has a vibrant community of external and internal transfer and exchange students.  Transfer student credit allowances and course scheduling can be confusing; attending the transfer student orientation sessions paves the way for a successful transition to the Hotel School. 

You should also plan to meet with the advisor for transfer students, Barbara Lang.  She can help you navigate your way through this transition period. You can make an appointment by calling 255-6376.

Full-time undergraduate students at Cornell may petition to enroll in courses at Wells College. Students pay regular full tuition to Cornell and only special fees to Wells College, where applicable. Students are allowed to register for one course per term and a maximum of 12 credits in four years.

The program is available only during the fall and spring semesters. For further information, contact the Office of Student Services, 180 Statler Hall, or the School of Continuing Education, B20 Day Hall. Ithaca College has a similar program.
