• • At this time, Baker University is prioritizing urgent transcript requests while continuing to expand processing capacity for standard requests. Students can still submit transcript orders for both electronic and hard-copy delivery. Please note that fulfillment timelines for nonurgent requests may be longer than usual.
  • For immediate needs, we recommend requesting an official grade verification letter that includes courses taken, credits completed, and final grades. This document is issued by the Office of the Registrar and is widely accepted by employers, licensing agencies, and academic institutions.
  • If your recipient is unable to accept a grade verification letter and you are facing an imminent deadline, please follow up on your transcript request by emailing records@bakerU.edu.
  • For PK–12 educators: Grade verification letters from Baker’s registrar continue to be accepted by local school districts and the Kansas Department of Education in lieu of official transcripts.

• Diplomas will be issued as soon as all graduation requirements are verified and final grades are processed. Baker University traditionally mails diplomas eight weeks after commencement in May. If a diploma is not issued during that timeframe, students will be individually contacted by the Registrar’s Office.
• If your mailing address has changed within the past six months, please contact the Office of the Registrar at records@bakerU.edu to ensure your diploma is sent to the correct location

The student portal serves as a controlled gateway to the student information system (Anthology). As noted on the portal landing page, granting full access at this time would significantly increase existing frustrations due to ongoing system limitations. While the university is actively exploring options for limited access, a timeline for implementation has not yet been established. Additional information will be shared as it becomes available.

We recognize that students need access to important information within the student portal, and our team is working urgently to restore full functionality. In the meantime, students can access the list of key contacts who can assist them in resolving their needs. Additional information will be shared as it becomes available.
