Certificates include the name of certificate only.

Diplomas/certificates will be mailed approximately six to eight weeks after the degree conferral date to the diploma/certificate address on file in the Registrar's Office.

The address indicated must be good for that time frame. Diplomas/certificates will not be forwarded by the Post Office. This address is only used to mail your diploma/certificate. If you update your primary/local mailing address it will not change your diploma/certificate address. 

You can make changes to your diploma/certificate mailing address in MyCentral.  Be sure to update the diploma mailing address (and not one of the other address fields).  If you move to an address other than the one on file in the Registrar's Office and fail to notify the Registrar's Office, we cannot guarantee you will receive your diploma/certificate. Returned diplomas will incur a $10 fee to be mailed again. A fee is required before a duplicate will be ordered.

If your diploma or certificate is damaged in mailing please contact your local Post Office. A fee is required before a replacement can be ordered.

Information from the Missouri Secretary of State:

The apostille is a specific form of authentication that is prepared pursuant to an international treaty known as "The Hague Convention Abolishing the Requirements of Legalization for Foreign Public Documents". The convention eliminates the need for authentication above the level of the Secretary of State and is only accepted by countries that have signed the treaty. The country in which the documents will be used determines the type of certificate that this office will attach to the original document.

Procedures for obtaining an apostille, authentication, or certification

• School Documents - must be certified copy from the school (see for example). The face of a diploma should not be altered. The registrar will sign a statement, which is typed on the BACK of the diploma or transcript. The wording is this statement says the diploma or transcript is either the original record issued by the school or a copy of the original document issued by the school and the date is was issued. The signature of the registrar is witnessed by a notary public.
• Notarized Documents - must have the proper notarization on the document including the notarial paragraph, notary's signature and seal (see for information).

Once the document(s) have been notarized by UCM, they should be sent to:
