International Student Enrolment Verification

Proof of student data such as status, course enrolment, graduation date, degree program and more; can be a requirement for scholarships, RESPs, employment, university applications or immigration purposes. We can provide you with a letter or complete a form to verify your enrolment. Please note that degree verification can be completed by employers via Auradata.

Graduate students/alumni are asked to contact the School of Graduate Studies and McMaster Continuing Education students are welcome to contact MCE. If you are alumni, you can request access to Mosaic by activating your MacID. Learn more about accessing Mosaic.

Letters downloaded from Mosaic are term-specific and only the letters that apply to you will be generated. Enrolment is required. All the letters listed indicate the language and method of instruction as well as McMaster accreditation.
