Every educational document type accepted for apostille or authentication — from elementary school through post-graduate and professional credentials.
Individuals seek apostilles for their academic records across a wide range of international scenarios.
The authentication path depends on your institution — getting it wrong means rejection. We route every document correctly the first time.
State university systems and community college documents are issued under state authority — they typically go straight to the Secretary of State for apostille, no notarization needed.
Private college and university documents must first be notarized by a notary public before apostille. We coordinate notarization and apostille as one service.
From document review to delivery — one service, one point of contact.

No — the Secretary of State requires originals or registrar-certified copies. If you want to keep your original, we can apostille a notarized copy instead.
Yes. Academic records must be apostilled in the state where the institution is located — we coordinate processing across all 50 states with return delivery to you.
Many countries require a certified translation, and some also want a credential evaluation (e.g., WES). We confirm your destination's requirements and bundle translation with your order.
Standard processing takes several business days; same-day service is available for urgent enrollment or visa deadlines.
Yes — accredited online university degrees follow the same path as their institution type (private universities: notarization, then apostille).
Every academic document type can be authenticated for international use, but each follows a specific path. Understanding which path applies to your diploma, transcript, or credential is the difference between same-week acceptance and a rejected, re-submitted application.
High-school diplomas, associate's and bachelor's degrees, master's degrees (MA, MS, MBA), and doctoral degrees (PhD, JD, MD) are the most commonly apostilled academic records. Because most diplomas are signed by school officials rather than a state registrar, private-institution diplomas usually require notarization before the apostille is issued.
Official transcripts must be sealed by the registrar to be eligible. We work with sealed university, community-college, and high-school transcripts and keep the seal intact through the entire authentication chain — opening a sealed transcript can void its eligibility, so the handling matters.
GED certificates, teaching credentials, vocational certificates, and professional board certifications are increasingly requested for overseas licensing and skilled-worker visas. These often pair best with a source-verified credential report for licensing boards that require independent confirmation.
Enrollment verification, degree-conferral confirmation, dean's certification, and good-standing letters support student-visa, scholarship, employment, and sponsorship applications. We apostille the letter and, where needed, confirm the underlying record directly with the issuing institution.
