Additional Resources
LSU of Alexandria reports official enrollment information on a regular basis to the National Student Clearinghouse (NSC), a national database of student enrollment and degree information. All lenders (banks, student loan associations, Campus Partners, Sally Mae, etc.) are able to and must obtain student enrollment and deferment eligibility information by accessing the NSC website.
In addition to lenders we require that employers and background screening firms contact the Clearinghouse for verification of student enrollment and/or degree. The Clearinghouse does charge a fee.
Enrollment Verification
Each month throughout a semester, LSU of Alexandria reports student enrollment verifications to the NSC database for every enrolled student who has paid his/her semester tuition bill. These reports are submitted on a regular basis during the semester, and this information does not require any action from the student once they have officially paid/confirmed for the current semester. The enrollment data is available for authorized lenders, insurance companies, employers, and students to access.
Please note that all verifications will only be processed once your semester tuition bill is paid or you have made a payment plan with student accounts.
If you have a form that needs to be completed by the Registrar’s Office for medical insurance, good student discount, etc., please be sure that your 博彩平台 ID# is on the form and your signature.
If you are in need of a letter verifying your enrollment or Degree, please complete the enrollment/degree verification form and submit to the Registrar’s Office.
Full-time status is certified by the following policy:

Degree Verifications
The Office of the Registrar reports all degrees awarded at the end of each academic semester to the National Student Clearinghouse (NSC). All lenders, employers, and recruitment agencies are able to and must obtain student degree information by accessing the NSC website.
What is an Apostille? An "apostille" is a form of authentication issued for documents that will be used in countries that participate in the Hague Convention of 1961. The US State Department provides a list of countries that accept apostilles. If the country where the documents will be used does not participate in the Hague Convention, those documents can be "authenticated" or "certified."
Louisiana State University of Alexandria will assist in the process for apostille or certification for diplomas and transcripts per the rules of the Hague Convention Number 12 and in coordination with the Secretary of State (SOS) based upon the student's written request.
The Office of the Registrar must receive the items outlined below to complete a document authentication/certification request. All items should be mailed to The Office of the Registrar, 8100 Hwy 71 South, Alexandria, LA 71302.
