Academic Records

Main Content

What are academic records?

Your academic record reflects your academic achievements while at George Brown College. You may need it to apply for a job or to another college or university. Your name as it appears on your STU-View record will be printed on your credential and transcript. It is in your best interest to ensure your record is correct (e.g., proper spelling of your name).

The Office of the Registrar performs the following to assist you:

  • Processes student grades and academic standing when these are received from the academic faculties.
  • Computes grade points and grade point averages.
  • Produces transcripts.
  • Grants diplomas, certificates and degrees.
