What graduation documents should international students collect before leaving university?


Great question! Collecting the right graduation documents is essential for international students, especially when planning to study further, apply for jobs, or process visas abroad. Here’s a comprehensive checklist of graduation documents you should collect before leaving your university:

1. Degree Certificate (Provisional & Final)


- Provisional Degree Certificate: Issued before the final certificate; accepted for admissions/visa if the final one is pending.
- Final Degree Certificate: Official document confirming your graduation.

2. Academic Transcripts/Mark Sheets


- Semester-wise Mark Sheets: For each semester/year.
- Consolidated Transcript: Shows marks/grades for all years in one document, often required by foreign universities.

3. Transfer Certificate (TC)


- Confirms you are no longer a student at that institution.

4. Migration Certificate


- Needed if you are applying to universities outside your home university’s board or country.

5. Character/Conduct Certificate


- Certifies your moral and behavioral conduct during your studies.

6. Bonafide/Student Status Certificate


- Sometimes required for visa or scholarship applications.

7. Medium of Instruction (MOI) Certificate


- States the language of instruction (often English); useful for universities that waive IELTS/TOEFL.

8. Recommendation Letters


- Issued by professors or academic staff; required for admissions and scholarships.

9. No Dues Certificate


- Confirms all financial and library obligations are cleared.

10. Internship/Training Completion Certificates


- If you have done any internships or training as part of your course.

11. Extracurricular/Co-curricular Certificates


- For activities, events, seminars, or workshops attended, which can strengthen your application.

12. Photocopies & Attested Copies


- Keep multiple sets of photocopies and get them attested by the university registrar or notary, as many universities require attested copies.

Tip:
Always check the specific document requirements of your target country/university (e.g., UK, USA, Canada, Australia, Germany, New Zealand), as they may ask for additional or specific formats.
