What is Transcript Processing?
Transcript Processing describes the system that a university or college uses to understand what is on a student’s transcript from a previous university or high school. The process is usually performed by a college’s admissions department and traditionally has involved large amounts of manual data entry to get data off of transcripts into a student information system (SIS).
The data that a university needs in their systems include a prospective student’s include, but are not limited to:
- Full name
- Social security number
- Address
- Email address
- Grade scores in tough courses, like college prep courses
- Standardized admission test scores, like SAT or ACT
- Grade scores in all tough courses
- Class rank (sometimes)
Once a transcript is processed and all data has been ingested in a higher institution’s student information systems, admissions staff can determine whether a student meets minimum qualifications to enroll and study at their school.
When that decision has been made, the school sends either a letter of acceptance or letter of rejection to the prospective student.
How Does Automation Improve Transcript Processing?
By using modern document processing technologies, all student data from paper and electronic transcripts can be recognized, extracted and imported into university information systems. The only manual work left to do is checking any areas that the document processing system flag for possible problems, like grade points.
Faster Student Onboarding = Higher Enrollment, Happier Employees, Huge Cost and Time Savings
Many times, universities scan and capture student applications into their systems to pre-accept students. Then they have to also manually enter the same information again into their SIS system. This can include hiring students to manually index thousands of files, which can take all summer to complete.
But by automating all slow and painstaking manual data entry with a solution like Grooper, over 95% of time can be saved in processing each transcript. Grooper is also being used to transfer the same files from a CRM data system into their SIS.
OSU officials estimated it took 12 minutes to index one transcript, depending on the length.
Upon implementation, Grooper began capturing and indexing 50 transcripts in the same amount of time, immediately creating a more efficient process.

What once required months of work from many people now takes only a few hours!
Situations like this also lead to happier employees, as tons of painful data entry work (that no one likes to do) have been automated.
As transcripts can be processed days faster, this leads to acceptance letters being sent days faster. And research has shown that a student is more likely to attend the school that sends them the first acceptance letter.
