The Electronic Transcript Request page is used to send electronic transcript files from ctcLink to public universities in Washington as well as other ctcLink colleges. University recipients receive a DAT file (for automatic data upload) and a PDF copy of the student's transcript. Transcript data sent to ctcLink recipients is posted to the External Education page. For more information on how and when ctcLink transcripts are sent electronically, see Transcript Troubleshooting and FAQs.

I'm wondering why it is "Save" and not "Process" that you choose. I didn't see an explanation
Tanjagay Martin
A reason hasn't been identified, but you are correct--Save is the correct button to use.
Janel Middleton
It is conflicting while viewing screens intended for printing transcripts it reads Student’s Home Page at the top. Am I missing something?
Tanjagay Martin
Hello Janel, Thank you for your comment. The Student Hompage (in the upper-left corner of the image) happens to be the last page that the person was on in the system before navigating to the Electronic Transcript Request page. Respectfully, Tanjagay Martin | Functional Trainer CS Core
Mary Vincent
There used to be a link to a list of colleges that included both the ORG ID and the Location Number for electronic transcripts. The list above does not include the location number and the link to the list in my older version for sending electronic transcripts has gone dead. Where do I find the list with the Location Number included now? I know most of the colleges have '1' as a location number but as I recall, there were a few colleges with '2' as their location number.
Thanks Everyone!
Tanjagay Martin
Hi Mary, Thank you for your question. On the Address tab, once you've identified an Org ID, you can select the Location Nbr looking glass to view the location number.
Molly Zinkle
Hi! What happens if you push the process button on accident... asking for a friend.
Also is there a way to see all electronic transcripts you'd sent and if the colleges have received/ opened them?
Thanks!
Molly
Tanjagay Martin
Hello Molly, It is greatly appreciated that you commented. Clicking the Process button will prevent the transcript from being sent. Instead of clicking Process, save the page. Have a fantastic day, Molly! ~Tanjagay Martin | CS Core Trainer

Hi, do you have any query/ report will identify transcripts that were NOT posted the DATE PROCESSED? We have sent many electronic transcripts daily, it wastes a lot of time to check back the transcript we sent in the next date to make sure it is processed successfully. Thank you.
Tanjagay Martin
Hi Tinh,
Thanks for asking such an excellent question. The query QCS_SR_ELEC_TRANS_SENT will provide you with Date Processed information. Have a fantastic day. ~Tanjagay Martin | CS Core Trainer
