Hola, he encontrado esto:

"What is the difference between an Official and an Unofficial Transcript?
Both the official and the unofficial transcript contain the same information about a student’s academic record: a
chronological list of classes, grades, and credits. Northern Lights will accept either one.
Only an official transcript includes the Registrar’s signature, the college seal, and the date it was issued. An official
transcript is delivered in a sealed envelope which should not be opened by anyone except the addressee. It is a legal
document. There is usually a fee for each official transcript ordered.
An unofficial transcript is the student’s academic record without signature, seal, date, or sealed envelope. There is
usually no fee. A student may obtain an unofficial transcript by following the same procedure as for requesting an
official transcript."

Es decir, una "transcript" es un certificado del "record", opino yo.

Buen sábado.
