Your degree copy apostille can (must) be done at the state level (i.e. not the office in DC). There's no reason to pay for a high-priced courier unless you can't visit your state capital and don't know anyone who can take it for you, and a courier service that gets their apostilles from DC could not do it. (Since apostille pros gets their apostilles from California instead of the federal government, I suppose you could use them for your degree if you were either absolutely desperate or rich.  )
If you haven't yet, search for threads on the process of getting your degree copied, notarized and apostilled (varies by state). I'd also suggest just giving your state's office a call or checking their website since sometimes info posted on message boards is out-of-date or contradictory. You can also get it done in neighboring states if they have an easier process or a more conveniently located capital. The key is that the notary and the apostille must both be from the same state. |
That was very informative, thank you very much . |

Yes, I graduate in May of next year. I wanted to jump on the CBC as soon as possible since it takes a long time apparently. |
