This post takes (a hopefully refreshing) break and focuses on why a consumer (like you \u2013 our esteemed reader) may benefit from degree verification.<\/td>\n<td><a href=\"http:\/\/www.jantakhoj.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/degree-verification.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.jantakhoj.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/degree-verification.jpg?w=300&amp;h=205\" alt=\"degree-verification\" width=\"380\" height=\"170\" \/><\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p><strong>You are applying overseas for higher education<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>You have made up your mind that you need to go overseas for higher education. You have gone through the long and meticulous cycle of planning, preparation and execution. All the tests are taken, results in, universities and schools selected and applied to. While quite a few of the universities may ask for original hard copy transcripts from the university or institute, others may just ask for a verified copy of the degree. This typically means a stamp and signature from registrar\u2019s office on the photocopy of the degree.<\/p>\n<p><strong>You are applying overseas for an employment opportunity<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>You have decided that it is time to work overseas now. While being fairly difficult to achieve, relative to the higher education route, it still may work out for certain countries, types of sectors and kind of job in consideration. There is a reasonable chance that the employer may ask for a verified copy of the degree, either at the time of application or at any later stage of the hiring cycle.<\/p>\n<p><strong>You are applying for a visa<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Good news \u2013 one of the earlier scenarios has played out successfully for you. You have secured either an admission to an academic program or a job opportunity overseas. In either case, you will show up at the concerned embassy or consulate for getting the suitable visa. Certain countries and specific types of visas may require you to either submit hard copy of the transcripts or verified copy of the degree.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Your university\u2019s accreditation was revoked or the university shut down or university never had any accreditation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>These are more serious scenarios which present big challenges in degree verification. In certain cases, the degree verification may be possible \u2013 for example, degree was awarded at a point of time when the university accreditation had not been revoked. But other scenarios like closure of the university or never having accreditation do not offer any suitable solution.<\/p>\n<p>In any of these four scenarios, typically, you will end up traveling to the university, staying there for a few days, applying for degree verification and following up to receive verified photocopies. All this presents a huge cost to you \u2013 in terms of time, money and the hassle. A better solution would be to go in for the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.jantakhoj.com\/verification\/education-verification.php\">degree (Education Self) verification services<\/a> provided by professional third party verification agencies like <a href=\"http:\/\/www.jantakhoj.com\">JantaKhoj<\/a>.
