Hey everyone,
I was wondering, if I photocopy my degree and get it stamped by by University, and apostilled does it pass for EPIK?
Just a black and white photocopy on A3 paper?
I contacted my embassy here in Korea about notarizing it. No can do, however, on EPIK website they say the embassy will do it for you.
Confused!?!

I got my diploma photocopied at the local notary public and they stamped/notarized the copy. I was able to get that apostilled and according to my recruiter that was perfectly fine.

You can also get letters of certification from the university that are stamped that are just as valid as your degree. - no need to get them apostillized

It depends on where in the world YOU are from. Different rules for different countries.

As a general rule however, a photo copy of your degree that has been notarized (authenticated as a true copy of the original) and had the apostille is acceptable to immigration (and EPIK/GEPIK/etc.).

Canadians have a different game to play.
