When applying to a UK University, particularly for distance learning, most applications ask for an original version of your previous degree. This can be a little worrying for students who are concerned about sending their degrees in the mail internationally. We are happy to provide certified copies of your original academic documents so that you can avoid sending originals to the UK.

To have your documents certified, please provide us with :

  • the original documents (transcripts or degrees in English or in French)
  • a photocopy of the documents
  • a note of how many copies you require

It is especially important to provide your own photocopies of over sized degrees (larger than 8.5×11″) as we do not have the facilities on site to make oversized copies. The documents can be dropped off in person at our Toronto office or sent by mail. We will check the documents and certify true copies with a stamp and signature. These certified photocopies can then be sent to the UK and are perfectly acceptable.

To do this service in person, please email [email protected] to schedule an appointment.

The charge is $25.00 per signature (please note that each photocopy will need one signature). Acceptable forms of payment are certified cheque or money order payable to the Results or cash (do not sent cash in the mail). A receipt will be issued.

For service done by mail, please enclose a prepaid envelope if you would like the items returned by courier, otherwise they will be sent by regular mail. Please do not use Purolator. The processing time is generally five working days.
