 Transcript Attestation : Mark-sheet attestation service for Nepali students
Students who are applying for admission to American universities may have their transcripts ("mark-sheets") attested by USEF. Recognizing that academic institutions in Nepal and other parts of Asia do not issue second copies of transcripts, USEF has provided attestation service for over 20 years. The majority of universities in the United States will accept attested copies (in-lieu of originals) that have our office seal, the educational adviser’s signature, and an attached cover letter.
Please follow these instructions if you need to have your transcripts
attested by USEF:
- Bring all originals and photocopies of your transcripts and certificates
to our office. We will review your documents before we accept them.
- Pay the required attestation fees, currently, Rs 25 per
page.
- Return the following day to pick up your attested copies unless otherwise instructed.
Depending on which schools you attended in the past and the
origin of your transcripts, USEF may send your transcripts
to outside agencies for further verification. This may delay
the attestation process. Furthermore, USEF will attest the
following documents only:
- Mark-sheets/Transcripts
- Degree completion, provisional, or character certificates
USEF does not attest:
- Financial documents
- Standardized test scores
- Letters of recommendation

Please contact the Educational Adviser at USEF if you
have any questions about our attestation service or about
transcripts from Nepal. We can be reached by:
