Request an Apostille

International organizations may require an apostille for transcripts and/or diplomas in order to validate the documents. An apostille is an additional level of authentication of a notarized document. ACU can provide the notarization and submit the documents to the Arizona Secretary of State’s Office for apostille purposes. Before requesting notarization, please check with the agency requesting your documents to determine what level of document verification is required.

To request an apostille for an official transcript, please fill out the electronic transcript request form using the link below:

• Select Apostille as the Delivery Method on the form. 
• In the Additional Information section, please indicate if an apostille of a diploma is also requested. 

According to the Family Education Rights and Privacy Act of 1974 (FERPA), the Office of the Registrar must have written permission to release a student’s transcripts. No transcripts will be sent from the Office of the Registrar unless requested through this webpage. Students must fill out a new transcript request for each set of transcripts sent.

• When completing the request, please verify that the Recipient’s address and/or email was entered correctly. The Office of the Registrar cannot be responsible for delivery errors due to inaccurate information reported on the form.
• There are additional fees associated with the apostille process.
• Apostille requests may take 10-30 days to complete. ACU has no control over the processing time of the apostille by the Secretary of State’s Office.

Call the Office of the Registrar at 602-386-4111 or email at [email protected] for any questions regarding transcript requests.
