Washington Transcript Redaction Requests are documents sent to the Washington State Department of Health to request the removal or redaction of personal information from an individual's official academic record. This service is available to individuals who wish to protect their privacy and to protect their academic record from potential misuse. There are two types of Washington Transcript Redaction Requests: a standard redaction request and an abbreviated redaction request. A standard redaction request removes all identifying information from a transcript, including name, address, date of birth, and any other identifying information. An abbreviated redaction request only removes certain identifying information, such as name, address, and date of birth. Both requests will result in the creation of an edited transcript that does not contain any personal information. Washington Transcript Redaction Requests are a secure and confidential way for individuals to protect their private information. This service helps protect against identity theft, fraud, and other potential abuses of personal data.
