Are you sending your records outside the country and need an apostille for your transcript, degree verification and/or diploma? The sole function of the apostille is to certify the authenticity of the signature on the document(s).

The registrar’s office will create affidavits to accompany the document(s) to certify that they are the official record of your academic career, and will have the document(s) notarized by a Notary Public on campus. This may take 2-4 business days after the request is received.
