Certification of Enrollment is required for many purposes-–medical or legal associations, licensure, insurance companies, employers, loans, etc. The Office of the University Registrar is responsible for certifying student enrollment status. The Registrar maintains both past and current student records, but does not verify future enrollment. Pre-registration is considered future enrollment until the end of the drop/add period for that semester. A student is not considered a Case student unless he/she is officially registered.
A Certification of Enrollment does not include courses taken or grades attained while a student at Case; that information is only obtained through ordering a transcript. Your Enrollment Certification will include the following:
| Person Requesting Service | How To Order | Notes |

There is no charge for enrollment certification services. Please note there is a FedEx option to overnight an enrollment certification, if requested, which is a $21 charge. Please contact the Registrar’s Office to request this service.
For requests other than same day self service enrollment certification downloads, processing time is typically 1 - 3 business days. Please allow for additional processing time during peak periods such as the start and end of classes (mid January, beginning of May, end of August and mid December).
Enrollment certification services are provided for the benefit of our students and alumni. We reserve the right to refuse certification requests from commercial entities which are intended for profit (i.e., requests from credit card companies).
