Suffolk University Apostille Service: How to Apostille Your Diploma or Transcript in Massachusetts

If you graduated from Suffolk University and plan to work, study, teach, obtain dual citizenship, or relocate overseas, you may be required to obtain an apostille for your diploma or official transcript. Boston Notary Service specializes in helping Suffolk University students and alumni obtain fast, accurate Massachusetts apostille services without the confusion or delays that often come with handling the process alone.

Whether your documents are headed to Spain, Italy, Portugal, France, South Korea, Japan, China, the United Arab Emirates, Mexico, Brazil, Colombia, or another country, our experienced team can manage the entire apostille process from start to finish.

Suffolk University provides options for requesting replacement diplomas and official transcripts with apostille support through its Registrar's Office, but students must still coordinate with a Massachusetts notary and complete the Commonwealth apostille process.

What Is an Apostille?

An apostille is an official certificate issued by the Massachusetts Secretary of the Commonwealth that verifies the authenticity of a Massachusetts public official's signature, allowing the document to be legally recognized in another country that is part of the Hague Apostille Convention.

Many international employers, universities, licensing agencies, and immigration offices require an apostille before accepting educational documents issued in the United States.

How the Suffolk University Apostille Process Works

Step 1: Order Your Documents

Students and alumni should request either:

Replacement Diploma with Apostille option

Transcript with Apostille option
Through Suffolk University's ordering process. The university instructs students to work with a Massachusetts mobile notary because the university does not maintain an in-house notary for this purpose.

Step 2: Mobile Notary Coordination

Our Massachusetts Notary Public coordinates directly with the Suffolk University Registrar to:

Schedule pickup

Witness required signatures

Properly notarize the educational documents

Ensure compliance with Massachusetts apostille requirements


Step 3: Massachusetts Apostille

We personally submit your documents to the Massachusetts Secretary of the Commonwealth for apostille certification instead of relying solely on mail processing whenever possible.

Step 4: Secure Return Shipping

Once completed, your apostilled documents can be shipped anywhere in the world using FedEx, UPS, or DHL with tracking.
