Official Transcript
In accordance with the provisions of Public Law 93-380, the Family Educational Rights and Privacy
Act (also known as the Buckley Amendment), the Office of Student Services will release a transcript of a student's academic record only upon written request of the student. The request for the transcript release must bear the signature of the student along with identifying information. Official transcripts are not issued to the student but to the College, official, or agency listed on the request.
Unofficial Transcript
Unofficial Snead State Community College transcripts, which are stamped "Student Copy," may be released to a student upon written request. A student may view and print an unofficial transcript by accessing SSCC Online. The Personal Identification Number (PIN) is the student's six-digit birthdate (mmddyy). Copies of transcripts from high schools, GED testing centers, or other colleges will not be released to students.
Facsimile (FAX) Transmission of Transcript
The Office of Student Services will accept transcript requests by fax at 256.593.7180. Students wishing to send transcript requests by fax must furnish the following information:
 |
Full name and any previous names under which enrolled; |
|
Social Security Number; |
|
Date of Birth; |
|
Dates of Attendance; |
|
School or Organization where transcript is to be forwarded; |
|
Daytime phone number; |

The Office of Student Services will honor requests to fax transcripts to other institutions provided a written request by the student is on file. Telephone requests are not honored. A student should be aware that the receiving institution has the right to decline faxed transcripts. A fee of $2.00 will be charged for the initial and for each subsequent request for faxed transmission of records. Snead State Community College will accept a faxed transcript only as a working document pending the receipt of an official transcript with the seal imprint and registrar's signature from the forwarding institution.
Transcript requests will not be honored for any student who has outstanding academic or financial
obligations in any of the administrative offices of the College.
Any student who withdraws from the College must have completed all admission credentials and have
cleared all financial or other obligations in all of the administrative offices before being entitled to an
academic transcript.
The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974, 20 U.S.C. 1232g, is a federal law that protects the confidentiality of student educational records. Snead State Community College officials recognize their obligation to exercise discretion in recording and disseminating information about a student. To implement this law and to meet the obligation to the student, a written institutional policy governing student records has been formulated. Annual notification will be made to Snead State students of their rights relative to educational records via the College Catalog.
For purposes of this policy, a student is defined as an individual who has been admitted and is enrolled or has been enrolled at the College. A student has the right of access to his/her educational records and may inspect and review the information contained therein. Exceptions to a student's rights of access are stated in the college policy. Educational records refer to all records maintained directly pertaining to an individual as a student. Parents of students below the age of 18 have the right to request and review information concerning the educational progress of their children.
