Enrollment Verification

What is a degree/enrollment verification? A verification is a request for a employer, college or university to verify a student's degree and enrollment information. Unlike a transcript, a verification is simply a confirmation of certificates or degrees earned and does not include course grades. 

Why Would I Need an Enrollment Verification?

Students may need certification of enrollment to defer student loans, to provide proof of enrollment for their health insurance, to verify certificates/degrees for prospective employers or to show proof of academic standing to enroll in another institution.
