Request Your Northland Transcript

Transcript ordering is currently paused temporarily as Northland College transitions its student records to the Wisconsin Association of Independent Colleges and Universities (WAICU). This allows for the secure upload and activation of all transcripts within WAICU’s system.

We appreciate your patience during this time. Once the transition is complete, transcript ordering will resume through WAICU’s online platform. Updated instructions will be posted here as soon as the service is available.

Please check back shortly for the latest information.

Degree Verification*

Verification companies can check the National Student Clearinghouse. If your information is not available through the Clearinghouse, it will be available by written request from WAICU. Learn more here.
