Enrollment Certifications
An enrollment certification is an official document that confirms attendance, awarded degrees, current and past enrollment, expected graduation date, Texas Success Initiative status, available test scores, cumulative GPA and other parts of a student academic record. Official certifications are printed on security paper with the university seal and the registrar’s signature.
