School of Record Review

School of Record

The DIS school of record is the University of Minnesota, which works closely with DIS on the curriculum and oversees program quality through direct DIS Curriculum committee representation and DIS program reviews every four years.

The latest review was completed in March 2011.  We are pleased to share that the review team “wholeheartedly endorse[s] the DIS program and feel[s] that [DIS] meets all necessary specifications to warrant University of Minnesota School of Record credit.” Read the latest review.

Grade Report Issuance

DIS issues a Final Grade Report to the student after completion of the term of attendance. The Report is accepted by almost all US universities. The home institution determines whether credits from DIS will be accepted directly, or whether an official transcript from a United States accredited institution is needed. If this is the case, the University of Minnesota will act as the School of Record and provide an official transcript for a fee of $350, which will be added to the student’s invoice.

Important: Students should check with their home institution as to whether a Final Grade Report from DIS is acceptable, or if an official transcript from the University of Minnesota is needed for you to receive class credit. This must be arranged prior to the beginning semester or summer session they plan to attend, as part of the registration process.

Final Grade Reports and/or University of Minnesota official transcripts will only be issued if all fees have been paid to DIS and there are no academic or administrative holds on the student’s record.
