Enrollment/ Degree/ GPA Verification

The Registrar’s office will provide verification letters for students. Four types of letters are available:

  • Enrollment, see Enrollment Status details.
  • Grade Point Average (GPA)
  • Pending Degree (if graduation application is on records)
  • Degree (after degree awarded)

Online Services

All the third parties (such as other universities, potential employers, licensing boards, etc) must place their requests through National Student Clearinghouse (NSC). Note:

  • Requires an online account with NSC. 
  • Verification services are normally available 24/7. 
  • If the student attended SJSU before 1992, the process may take 2-3 business days.
  • When placing the request with NSC, be as complete as possible. Include all names used while attending SJSU, dates of attendance if known, social security number, and date of birth.
  • NSC charges a fee for their services.  Visit their website for the most current information
