read structured PDF files into data available for analysis and
tabulation. Currently working for Johns Hopkins Transcripts
You can install transcriptr from GitHub with:

in and then go to Registration → My Grades, then click [View Unofficial
Transcript]. This should download a Transcript.pdf.
If you are an advisor, you need to go to the Advisor Tab:
then the Advisees List:
then for an individual student, click Grades:
and then download the transcript by clicking View Unofficial Transcript:
The read_jhu_transcript will read this in and give a data.frame of
the parsed output.
The Shiny app: https://jhubiostatistics.shinyapps.io/validate_curriculum/ should also do this for you, allowing you to download a CSV of your data. If you want the grades, you must check that box for the export.
