We are pleased to share that The College of Saint Rose and the University at Albany have reached an agreement regarding the retention of Saint Rose transcripts. Under this agreement, Saint Rose transcripts will be transferred to the University over the course of the next 7 months. As required, the University at Albany will maintain Saint Rose transcripts in perpetuity and provide continued access to Saint Rose students and alumni.

Until the full transfer of transcripts is complete at the end of December 2024, Saint Rose students and alumni who need academic records for employment or further education need to continue to request their transcripts through The College of Saint Rose Registrar’s Office by following the directions on the Registrar’s Office Transcript Requests web page here: https://www.strose.edu/forms-applications-and-instructions/transcript-requests/

Additional instructions will be provided once the actual transfer of transcripts is finalized later this Fall.

UAlbany was the College’s first Teach-Out partner to sign an agreement, offering at least 85% of Saint Rose’s undergraduate AND graduate programs a degree completion pathway. The University at Albany announced in January that the New York State Department of Education had approved three new undergraduate teacher certification programs at the University, which is a critical component of Saint Rose’s Teach-Out Plan.

We are grateful for the support University at Albany President Dr. Havidán Rodríguez, Provost Dr. Carol Kim, and their colleagues have shown, and continue to show, Saint Rose students and alumni.

Request your Saint Rose transcript via the Registrar's office online, by mail or in-person for current students and alumni.
