Requesting transcripts, letters and documents

How do I request a transcript?

Official transcripts from NAIT are issued and accessed through MyCreds™, a secure digital transcript sharing platform. Transcripts are requested online through the MyNAIT portal (Open Self Service > Academic Records > Grades, Transcripts & Assessments > Request Official Transcript). When your transcript is ready in 1-2 business days, you will receive an email confirmation from MyCreds™ to access your document. You will be able to purchase MyCreds™ share credits ($16 plus tax per share, non-refundable) to share your transcripts with organizations, such as post-secondaries or employers), quickly and securely. You can learn more on the Ordering Transcripts page.

For alumni who attended NAIT prior to 2000 and have not returned since, or are former Fairview College or Westerra students, they will need to request their transcript to be uploaded to MyCreds™ using the online Contact Form. Select topic ‘Academic Records’, and subcategory ‘Official Transcripts on Mycreds’. Due to the historical nature of these transcripts, they cannot be ordered in person. 

Apprentices must request their transcripts through Alberta Apprenticeship and Industry Training

How is my Graduation GPA (GGPA) and honours standing calculated?

For degree, diploma, and certificate students, your GGPA is calculated using only the courses required to satisfy the program requirements. If you retake a course, only the highest grade will be included in the GGPA calculation. Your GGPA determines your eligibility for graduation (minimum GGPA of 2.0 or higher) and for honours standing (minimum 3.7 GGPA or higher).

When calculating your GGPA, it is based on the first decimal point and will not be rounded. This maintains consistency and fairness in evaluating academic achievements. Therefore, the GPA displayed on your transcript will be the exact calculation, without any rounding adjustments. For example, a GGPA calculated at 2.786 will be shown as 2.7.

Refer to the how to calculate your GPA for detailed step-by-step instructions.
