5.) Final Grade Request and Official Transcript Ordering Process
Early Course Completion: If a student completes a course before the designated completion date and requires final grades to be dispatched ahead of schedule, the student must submit the Final Grade Request Form. Otherwise, all grades will be reported to their respective credit-granting university two weeks following the official conclusion of the course.
This process may take 7–10 business days after grading is complete.
Submit the Final Grade Request Form after you have finished your course. To ensure your request is handled promptly, please adhere to these guidelines precisely. Provide the exact name and email address registered to your TEL Canvas account; avoid using nicknames.
Double-check all spelling for accuracy before you submit.
Pick your university and list up to 4 courses, if needed, per request, and wait for a confirmation email prior to requesting transcripts.
Avoid submitting this form if: you have ungraded Mastery Assignments or Lab Reports (reach out to your instructor via Canvas), or if there are missing exams, quizzes, CYKs, or pending resubmissions and violations. Please note that if any of the above requirements are unmet, your request cannot be processed.
The academic team conducts a final review of the completed course.
Final grades are processed and sent to the selected university partner.
Students must wait for the email confirmation from telindependents@tel-education.org before ordering their official transcript.
The university processes the final grade within its system and concludes the official transcript. Kindly be considerate of the timing when requesting a transcript, as the university updates its system manually.
The student follows the university’s transcript request process to order and pay for the official transcript.
