Enrollment Verifications

The Office of the University Registrar routinely certifies students' enrollment to a variety of outside agencies. Students often need official verification of their enrollment status sent to various agencies and organizations, to include:

  • Insurance companies for students applying for family, life, and auto policy discounts
  • Automobile dealers for graduates seeking auto loan discounts
  • Employers for students seeking jobs
  • Credit card companies for students applying for credit
  • Pension fund companies for students applying for survivor educational benefits
  • U.S. Veterans Affairs (VA) for student veterans applying for educational benefits
  • Financial aid lenders and loan guarantors, via the National Student Loan Clearinghouse


The College has authorized the National Student Clearinghouse to provide degree and enrollment verification. Requests from Employers/Third Parties for verification of current enrollment may be directed to the National Student Clearinghouse at:

Note: To cover the cost of this service, some requestors pay a small service fee to obtain verifications of student enrollment.

Current Students and Alumni may obtain a verification of enrollment by downloading and submitting the Enrollment Verification Request Form. Often, a company or agency will send a form to be completed and certified by the Registrar. If the certification includes a specific form, please send the form along with your request.

During off-peak times, verifications may processed within twenty-four hours. During peak times, processing time is 2 to 4 business days.

Current students and alumni may also obtain enrollment verifications online, twenty-four (24) hours per day at www.studentclearinghouse.org, where you may obtain the following information for a small fee (currently $2.50):

  • Enrollment verification for current and past semesters.
