UAInfo provides direct transcripts

Advisors who are accustomed to sending students to the registrar's office for a complimentary copy of their transcript will have to get used to doing it another way - over the Internet.

The Registrar's Office has decided advisors should now pull up student records by accessing UAInfo and not sending them to the Administration building for a hard copy.

"(Previously) a student could get a free copy in response to an advisors request," said Administrative Assistant Sharon Irish. Now the student and the advisor can get the same information with less running around, she said.

"What we are trying to do is get the advisors to use the computers," said Mary Clark, office assistant.

This paper-eliminating measure is the second announced by the Registrar's Office recently. Starting this semester, students will no longer receive a hard copy of their grades unless they request one Üæsaving the university $25,000 in postage and printing costs.

Students who want to know their grades will have to use the RSVP phone system or UAInfo.
