Requesting Transcripts from Study.com - daharamu - 02-06-2021
Hello! I just had a few quick questions about requesting transcripts from SDC (study.com.) I'm on the premium plan and go to COSC. I see it is free to request transcripts on both this and the basic plan, but is there a limit to how many times you can request a transcript in a month? Also, if I finish everything and it isn't graded when my plan is finished, do I have to pay to request a transcript if I'm no longer on a monthly plan with SDC? Thank you all for your help!

You don't earn any credit when you're on the Premium or Basic plans, only if you are subscribed at the College Accelerator level and take the exams. I am not aware of any transcript request limit at SDC but it's pointless to do it too often. It stands a good chance of slowing down processing both at SDC and at COSC. From what I have heard from other people, COSC insists that SDC sends in a PAPER transcript and not an electronic one (TESU allows electronic). The more transcripts you send in, the more time they have to take to open and process the transcripts. I would limit sending transcripts to maybe once a month or so.
If you unsubscribe, it won't cost you anything to send a transcript.

I got it wrong, I'm on the College Accelerator plan I guess. Wow, that's strange COSC wants a paper transcript from SDC, cause when ordering transcripts from Sophia it was always electronic. Good point then, I wouldn't want to slow down the process for anyone, so I'll just wait till I'm finished with all of my classes before ordering one then.
Also good to know it won't cost anything to order a transcript when I'm not paying for a subscription anymore. Thank you so much for your help!
