- The vendor must provide electronic security features including, but not limited to, "watermarking" the PDF, electronic shredding options, and time and date stamping.
- The vendor must be approved by the Director of Admissions or designee and the University Registrar or designee who will act on behalf of the Student Records Committee.
Received transcripts will be considered official for student evaluation only if accessed by a designee of the Admissions or Registrar's office.
