I got mine notarised and the ink soaked through, very classy.

I have apostillised copies. But has anyone gotten the actual degree apostillised?

Does it help in anyway?

I my actual diploma notarized and apostilled.

I don't see how it helped or hurt. Except for my diploma.... which is pretty much destroyed.

I have two diplomas, the first was destroyed by peruvian stamp happy people with stamps, signatures, and liquid stamps. And staples.

The second, just has the notary on it.

So, the apostille, they just stick the gold sticker on the back, right?

I was under the impression that you don't have to get it notarised or apostilled. Not the original, anyway. Isn't the university's stamp sufficient?

Keep doing that and it's only a matter of time before someone folds it, spills coffee on it, or just plain loses it.

Unless you know for a fact that your university will issue another copy of your diploma identical to the original, leave your diploma in a nice safe place at home and just use notarised/apostillised copies. If you're from a country that accepts appostillised documents then Korea has to accept them as an equivalent of the original. If you're from Canada, get notarised copies and then have the Korean consulate stamp the notarised copies. If you plan on going elsewhere, keep a couple more copies on you (or leave them with a friend or family member back home who can mail them to you).
