How to Get Transcripts Transferred From Wilberforce University

Wilberforce University, named for the famous anti-slavery campaigner William Wilberforce, is the oldest private African American university in the United States. It is located in Wilberforce, Ohio, and was founded in 1856, before the end of slavery. Graduates from Wilberforce University who wish to pursue further education at either the undergraduate or graduate school levels must provide their prospective new schools with their academic transcript from Wilberforce University. After submitting the appropriate form and fee, Wilberforce will mail the transcript directly to the receiving institution (or to the student requesting it).

      Settle any outstanding fees you owe Wilberforce. They won't release your transcript until this has been done. If your bills are in order, it will take two to three days to process, five days if they are busy. Add to this the time required for a letter to reach the transcript's destination, and you'll have a rough idea of its arrival date.
