Colleges and universities withhold transcripts for students with outstanding debts. Advocates want Connecticut to prohibit the practice. #ctmirror @CTMirror #highereducation #transcripttrap #studentdebt https://t.co/ywS3o9or4a
💪@derekslap strong on the #TranscriptTrap today: "If students can't get a job without a transcript, there's no chance they're going to pay these schools back." Bravo!!

Happy #MemeMonday! Did you know in MA (and nearly all of the U.S.), students can be denied access to their own academic transcripts due to unpaid balances to their school. NY has banned the #TranscriptTrap & it's time for MA to do the same! Sign now: https://t.co/GebKXlJZdO
Thanks to the @CTSenateDems who voted overwhelmingly for #SB17 last night, a bill which would end the #TranscriptTrap in CT colleges. This legislation is breaking down barriers to student success in #HigherEducation!
On to the House! @CTHouseDems

The #TranscriptTrap perpetuates the cycle of poverty by targeting the credentials of students w/ debt. It impedes their ability to get jobs + prevents them from transferring credits in pursuit of new careers.
Public hearing tomorrow on #SB17.

Way to go CO! CT is also on our way to banning the #transcripttrap -lets make it happen @CTHouseDems @CTSenateDems @derekslap #SB17
The #TranscriptTrap — where students can't access academic records because of a past debt owed to the college — is a predatory practice that needs to stop. Shout out to @NewEraColorado on their legislation to end this 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Our bill to ban transcript & diploma withholding passed through the Colorado House this week, which means we're one step closer to protecting thousands of former and current students from this practice! https://t.co/Md0JECn4vK
Nearly 100K students and graduates in MA public colleges & universities have been held in a transcript ransom. S.821/H.1347 is the solution. Help us bring an end to this unfair practice by co-authoring an op-ed with us: https://t.co/SGRZbl3cWI #mapoli #maedu #transcripttrap
@genprogress @HigherEdNotDebt @OHIOStudents @ZeroDebt_MA This year Alliance member @NewEraColorado is joining the fight to end the #TranscriptTrap! https://t.co/ggARjSmEEL
Every year, thousands of Coloradans have transcripts withheld as a result of past due balances, preventing them from getting a job, transferring schools, or re-enrolling. Now we can ban this practice—tell your legislators to support our bill: https://t.co/m3n0U8ePbL
Shoutout to our @HigherEdNotDebt partners at @OHIOstudents, @ZeroDebt_MA, @alliance4youth + others who have done the hard, on-the-ground work on this issue (and are still working on it)!
How we can get schools to remove the #TranscriptTrap?
We couldn't agree with @SecCardona more. The #TranscriptTrap has got to go! Withholding transcripts over outstanding debts prevents students from qualifying for jobs, furthering their education + more.
Does your school still employ this archaic practice?

Gabriel Toro is one of millions of students who can't obtain their transcripts from colleges and universities. These students have unpaid bills as low as $25 or less, subjecting them to what advocates call "transcript ransom" or "the transcript trap." https://t.co/tosqi65ZV7

On #strandedcredits & the #TranscriptTrap: “the idea that [barring students from enrolling when they owe schools money] compels the student to pay is a false hope." https://t.co/9LvW5ijmD6 @PolicyMattersOH @OHIOStudents @OHorganizing @OhioPovertyLaw @OFTadvocate @CollegeNowGC
Ohio schools and policymakers can stop the #TranscriptTrap and make #highereducation in #Ohio more student-centered. Stories like Jenny's don't have to be the norm. @PolicyMattersOH @OHIOStudents
The #TranscriptTrap affects numerous Ohioans, including Jenny, whose daughter almost didn't graduate because of Ohio's laws surrounding transcript withholding.
