Try the Canadian Embassy.

I understand overseas I would go to a Korean Embassy to get the degree notarized, but where would I go here since there are no embassies per say

Actually, the visa process involves you going to immigrations with your original degree and they will make a copy of it and give it right back to you (the school asks for it because they have to show it to them to obtain the "blue form"- which is obsolete now)

If your degree is Canadian, try the British Council (I am saying this because I THINK Canada is still part of the commonwealth). They can certify it in 4 days with a certificate of authenticity.

If that doesn't work, then try the Ministry of Education, they might be able to verify it and notarize it for you

Do you mean Korean immigration in Seoul, have an address?

>Ministry of Education

Do you know the address, or whereabouts ?


Thanks

I don't know the actual address per say (as most places are found by following directions anyway)

But you need to go to Omokyo subway station and get out exit 7, then walk to a 5-way intersection and then turn right, then you cross the street to your left and cross again on your right. The Seoul Water Authority should be right in front of you and next to it is the Seoul immigration office.

The Seoul Ministry of Education is in Jungno 5-ga. I haven't been there since 2002 though. You would have to have a korean co worker or someone do a search on a korean search engine.
