Registrar

The Office of the Registrar oversees the security and accuracy of student records and provides assistance for scheduling, registration, and academic support to faculty and students.

The Registrar supports the academic mission of the University by providing its constituents with:

  • Accurate and effective communications and services related to registration, scheduling, and graduation of undergraduate and graduate students
  • Clear procedures to enforce and maintain administrative policies that preserve the integrity of academic records
  • Effective practices for the maintenance and dissemination of academic records for past and current undergraduate and graduate students

Ordering transcripts

The University of Bridgeport transcript is a complete academic record of a student’s enrollment at the university. Maintained by the Office of the Registrar, the transcript is a complete history of undergraduate or graduate level courses attempted and grades earned. Courses include those taken at UB, transfer coursework evaluated by the university, and advance standing credits. Your semester grade point average and academic standing are shown after each term. The transcript also includes any earned degrees including the majors and minors completed.


Graduation

Preparing for graduation

Students approaching completion of their academic program should:

  • Review with their academic advisor(s) all coursework, credits earned, possible waivers, and course substitutions or changes to their major.
  • Have their advisor process the necessary form(s) to inform the Office of the Registrar of any changes to the major, minor, or concentration, as well as any course substitutions, or waivers needed to satisfy the graduation requirements prior to the final certification approval.
  • Students must complete the Degree Application for the semester in which ALL your coursework will be completed. All coursework (including co-ops, internships, and independent study) must be completed and graded before a degree will be awarded. This includes any incomplete grades on the record.
  • The Degree Application for Graduation must be submitted online via Student Planning. The link is located on the top right-hand of the page.
