You may request an official transcript through the National Student Clearinghouse. This will ensure expedient processing and receipt of your request. There are no additional charges for official, electronic copies. Official paper copies via USPS are available for a small fee.

Review additional information regarding UMass Dartmouth transcripts (official & unofficial).

Questions regarding this process may be addressed by the Registrar's office.

You would need to verify if credits earned at UMass Dartmouth would be accepted toward your program at your home institution. UMass Dartmouth is an accredited University, but you must check with your current college to confirm if transfer credit will be accepted.

You will have access to course content via myCourses on the first day of class. If you try to access it earlier than the first day, you may receive an error message.

Registration is not automatic. You will be added to your Online & Continuing Education (OCE) course(s) by staff at the Student Service Center (SSC). SSC staff will create an account for you and add you to your course(s) of interest. You may reach out to the SSC to confirm the receipt of your DocuSign and ask when you should expect to be added to your course. Sending an email to student.service@umassd.edu will create a ticket for your question to be addressed.

UMass Dartmouth uses COIN (Corsairs Online Information), a similar system to UMass Boston (WISER) and UMass Lowell (Sis).

Since you are currently or have previously been a UMass Boston or UMass Lowell student, you may have to 'toggle' between campuses to access your UMassD course(s) and billing information. Once you receive information about account activation and successfully activate, you may follow the toggle steps provided below (Note: Always log out completely and potentially clear cache for the change to be effective):

  • Go to COIN for Students
  • Personal Information
  • User Preferences
  • Institution = UMass Dartmouth
  • Click SAVE
  • Log out and back into COIN
