RECORDS
Section Four
A. TRANSCRIPTS AND TRANSFER OF RECORDS
A transcript is a copy of a student's Permanent Academic Record. It contains a minimum
amount of personal data about the student and a chronological account of the student's
academic achievements at Darton State College. Also included is a list of courses and
credits transferred from any institution formerly attended by the student.
Students who wish to have a transcript of their record at Darton State College sent to
another institution should submit a “Request for Transcript of Record” form to the
Registrar's Office at least two weeks prior to the date the transcript is needed. The first
transcript is supplied without cost to the student; additional transcripts are issued upon
payment of $2.00 for each transcript issued.
In addition to Permanent Academic Records, the College maintains Continuing
Education Unit (CEU) records for students earning those credits. Transcripts of CEU
records are similar to Permanent Academic Records and are available from the Continuing
Education and Community Service Office.
B. ACCESS TO STUDENT RECORDS
Regulations pertaining to access to student records are found in the Student Handbook,
a copy of which may be obtained from the Office of the Vice President for Student Affairs,
the Office of Admissions, or the Department of Campus Life.

The dates designated on the College Calendar as “registration” are reserved for

E. PRE-REGISTRATION
One week during each semester is designated as Pre-Registration week, and currently
enrolled students may, at this time, pre-register for classes for the upcoming semester.

and each currently enrolled student is strongly encouraged to pre-register. Details
concerning pre-registration and fee payment are distributed during the week of pre-
registration.
