Orginal Degree is your degree stating your name, the field you graduated you in etc and declaring that you have officially graduated from the university. You won't get this document until you pay for the cost sharing. Student copy is a document containing all your grades for the the courses you took during your time as a student. It's not official and will usually have a stamp on it saying student copy Original transcript contains the same information as student copy but has a stamp declaring original on it. They are usually only sent to other universities or companies through post office to confirm if your student copy contains the same info as the original
