Composition of file / authenticity
For a complete file in secondary and higher education, the certificate and accompanying list of marks
are required in English. Schools will often issue a certificate in English (the Certificate of Graduation),
accompanied by a School Record or School Transcript.
Higher education institutions usually issue a certificate in English, the Certificate of Graduation,
accompanied by an Academic Transcript. The documents in Korean can also be requested.
Authenticity
There are no known problems with the authenticity of Korean certificates. It is sometimes possible to
verify Korean certificates, such as transcripts, for a period of 90 days after the date of issue either
online or after downloading a programme.
