Requesting a Letter of Certification

Eligibility for Certification

The Office of the University Registrar can certify students for current and previous terms of enrollment. Additionally, we can certify a student’s expected graduation date as it appears in the student information system. We cannot certify enrollment of newly admitted students until they have registered for classes.

The University Registrar is unable to write letters of good standing.  Information concerning non-credit enrollment must be directed to the School of Continuing Studies or the Center for Professional Development.
