Office of the Registrar
The Office of the Registrar provides services and support to
students and alumni, faculty and their departments, and various St.
John's constituents except the School of Law, which has its own Registrar.
The Office is responsible for the accuracy and integrity of the
University's official student records. Our chief responsibilities
fall into six broad categories: registration; record-keeping;
verifications and transcripts; course offerings; classrooms; and
graduation.
In its varied activities, the office works closely with the
offices of the Provost, Information Technology, Admission,
Financial Aid, the Bursar, the College Deans and the
University Freshman Center.
Students
Working closely with the University Freshman Center, the
Office of the Registrar builds programs for new undergraduate
students in their first semester. Continuing students may select
classes online through St. John's University
Information System (UIS).
The Registrar makes use of the National Student
Clearinghouse to ensure that students are not asked to repay loans
while they are still enrolled at the University. We also provide verification of
enrollment for health plans and other purposes at no charge.
Transcripts may also be requested by writing to the Office of the
Registrar at the appropriate campus.
Current students may also order transcripts and verifications or
enrollment via the Web.
Faculty
The Registrar mails each student a report card at the end of
every semester. Grades are also available online via UIS, from which students can view their academic
records, advisement reports, the University's varied course
offerings and other important information.
Employers, background screening firms and health insurers who
want to confirm enrollment or degree information should go directly
to www.degreeverify.com.
As guarantors of the accuracy and integrity of student records, we
adhere strictly to federal regulations that ensure the
confidentiality of student information.
