The University of Maine School of Law has partnered with Parchment to provide secure delivery of official transcripts in both electronic and paper format. Requests made through Parchment offer the ability to track the status of the request.  Please allow up to 3 business days for your transcript to be uploaded by the Registrar to Parchment services for processing.

Your academic transcript is the record of all activity related to your academic coursework at the University of Maine School of Law. This record includes a complete list of the courses you registered for, the grades and credits you earned, transfer credits, and any certificates and degrees that you have received.

Although transcripts are processed in a timely manner (usually within two or three working days), a transcript will be delayed if you currently have a “hold” on your account due to unpaid University bills or loans. You will be notified if this is the case.

Under Maine law, the University must provide current and former students their official transcript or diploma upon request, regardless of a past due balance or debt owed to the institution. Students with a record hold due to a past due balance should contact the Student Accounts Office to request a temporary removal of the hold so the student can then request their official record(s) through the University Registrar’s Office or available self-service options. Those with past due balances of $2,500 or more must enter into a payment plan before the hold is temporarily removed and their record(s) can be requested. For more information about this process, please see University of Maine System Administrative Practice Letter IX-K.  


Did you attend Maine Law prior to Fall 1985? If so, additional time may be required for your archived record to be converted to a digital format before it can be processed.
