Request for Student Transcripts
The Ontario Student Transcript (OST) is the official record of a student’s academic achievement at the secondary school level achieved in the Province of Ontario. Transcripts are required for application to post-secondary institutions and may be required for many other reasons such as employment.
If the last (public) secondary school you attended was within the Waterloo Region District School Board and you wish require your Ontario Student Transcript, please refer to the applicable process listed below to request your transcript.
Note: Students currently enrolled in secondary school are not charged for transcripts. Charges apply only to students who have been retired for one year or more. Past students will be charged $5.00 for the first copy and $1.00 for each additional copy, inclusive of regular postage. Any costs incurred for premium shipping (courier, express post, etc.) will be the responsibility of the applicant. Payment must be in cash or money order. Money orders must be made out to the “Waterloo Region District School Board”.
1. During the school year (September to June), please contact the Guidance Office of the last secondary school you attended in the Waterloo Region DSB.
2. During the summer months (July and August), please contact the Corporate Services Office at the Waterloo Region DSB Education Centre located at 51 Ardelt Avenue, Kitchener, Ontario, Building 1, Floor 1 (phone 519-570-0003, ext. 4438 or ext. 4336).
