In SPIRE, an unofficial transcript lists your classes, credits, and grades that you earned at UMass Amherst.

A. Unofficial Transcripts: an unofficial transcript cannot be used for official purposes because it does not have the Registrar's signature or the stamp of the University of Massachusetts. An unofficial transcript should be used for reference only.

B. Official Transcripts: for an official transcript, contact your most recent Registrar's Office:

• Undergraduate Registrar's Office, 213 Whitmore
• Graduate Registrar's Office, 532 Goodell
• Continuing & Professional Education Records & Registration Office, 100 Venture Way, Room 238, Hadley, MA

C. UMass Alumni: If you are a UMass alum who graduated before SPIRE was implemented (and you do not have access to SPIRE), you must contact your Registrar's Office for an official transcript.

1. In the left Menu, go to Academics > Unofficial Transcript. The View Unofficial Transcript page will open.
2. On the View Unofficial Transcript page, from the Report Type drop-down list, select Unofficial Trasncript, then click go. The Report Results page will open.
3. On the Report Results page, your transcript will appear with your Student ID, birth date and print date at the top. The report will list all your class, grades and credits by term. Learn more about printing SPIRE pages directly from your browser
4. At the top/bottom of the Report Results page, click Return. You will return to the View Unofficial Transcript page.

If you have recently run a transcript, you don't need to run it again (as this will overload the system):

1. On the View Unofficial Transcript page, scroll down to the bottom of the page and click View a Report that you had previously requested. The View Previously Requested Reports page will open.
2. On the View Previously Requested Reports page, all the reports you have recently run (e.g., transcripts, degree progress reports, etc.) will be listed by Request Date. Choose the report you wish to view, then click go next to its Request Date.
