|
|
Hey, I was just wondering if there is a difference between a notarized copy of your degree and a certified copy. I got a certified copy from my univeristy the other day and im wondering if this is the right one to send to korea for my visa application.
Thanks! |

| As far as I'm aware, you send the original and a certified copy to your Korean embassy/consulate, they notorize the certified copy, send them both back to you, then you can send the certified,notorized copy of your degree to the school. |

| hey, The school I am going to be working for told me that I could send a copy of my degree and didnt have to send my real degree...so im pretty sure i can send the certified copy but i might be wrong. Im really nervous sending my degree as my univeristy charges $100 to replace it.... |

| Don't send a one-and-only original! You never know what will happen to it. If your university will issue a copy you can send that. The other way to get a "certified copy" is to have a photocopy notarized and then stamped at the consulate. Ask your local consulate how they do things because they may want to see the original and some transcripts or something. |
