If you need to present your New York diploma, transcript, or other school records abroad, they must be authenticated with an apostille to be legally recognized. Apostilles are often required for studying overseas, employment, or visa applications.
In New York, most academic documents must first be notarized before the apostille can be issued. We guide you through each step and handle the process quickly and correctly, so your records are ready for international use.

How do you prepare a high school, college, university diploma, a transcript, an enrollment or graduation verification letter for foreign use?
Contact your school and request a certified notarized copy of your school record. New York colleges and universities issued certified notarized copies upon request. This document needs to be signed by a school official (original signature), and his/her signature must be notarized. Make sure the document is properly notarized by a New York notary public.
IMPORTANT! In the State of New York notaries public by law cannot attest to copies of documents. It is not correct if the notary just writes "This is a true copy of the passport", signs and affixes his or her stamp. The notary must notarize the signature of the school official who certifies a copy of the diploma / transcript.
You could save significant amount of time, if you email a copy of your document to us for a free evaluation. We will check if the notary is active (in good standing), if the document has been notarized properly, and will advise if any corrections are needed.
You can ask your school to send the document directly to us for an apostille.
If you are not able to obtain a certified notarized copy from your school, we can have the original diploma / transcript or a copy (copies) notarized and apostilled in Washington DC. Contact us....
