The National Transcript Center is a secure national service that improves the efficiency, reliability, cost and security of sending and receiving student records. NTC member institutions log in to a user-friendly, browser-based application to send, receive, manage, track, and import their electronic transcripts.
NTC enables members to send electronic student records between PK-12 institutions as well as electronic transcripts from high schools to higher education institutions.
PK-12 schools benefit in numerous ways from using NTC: saving money through reduced expenses, saving time through improved efficiencies, improving data quality through the elimination of re-keying data, and improving student placement by receiving records immediately. In addition, PK-12 schools can rest easy knowing NTC is built upon commitments to security, confidentiality, and open standards, and that each of our statewide contracts has required a thorough evaluation of NTC's security.
Key benefits for PK-12 schools:
 | Send electronic student records PK-12 to PK-12 and electronic transcripts PK-12 to college – NTC provides a complete PK-20 solution. |
| |
| Send records and transcripts to any school in the country – When sending records, it only takes a few seconds to select from over 137,000 public and private PK-20 educational institutions across the country. NTC members receive records/transcripts electronically; nonmembers receive them by mail on secure transcript paper. |
| |
| Exchange REAL data with schools on other data standards – NTC's exclusive data translation engine allows schools to exchange academic records/transcripts with institutions that use other data standards without purchasing additional translation software. |
| |
| Instantly locate a transcript – NTC's Track a Transcript feature allows users/students to enter a unique transcript number and receive information on the current location and history of the transcript. |
| |
| Student mobility challenges are eased – Immediate record transfer makes it easier to place incoming students appropriately and promptly. Also, there are no state boundaries with NTC, so it's just as easy to trade with out-of-state schools as with in-state schools. |
