For official transcripts (not unofficial ones), it's possible to generate partial transcripts; that is, transcripts that withhold a student term that has a transcript hold.

Caution

Federal regulations prohibit withholding a term from transcripts if the term has been paid and the student received federal aid. Penalties may be severe, so make sure you're in compliance.

Settings, permissions, and other factors affect your ability to withhold a term from a transcript. For a full description and instructions, see the Partial Transcripts help topic.
