Ask the registrar for a signed and sealed set of records — transcripts, immunization records, and any disciplinary or attendance letters required.
- 2Notarize as needed
Some states apostille only notarized documents; the registrar's signature is notarized.
- 3State apostille
The state where the school is located issues the apostille.
Required documents
