- icebraining 8y agoWhy?
- manishsharan 8y agoIt would make it possible to trust the academic credentials presented by foreign applicants. Currently this process is very cumbersome. Some unversities require applicants to submit notarized transcripts to thirdparty for verification. The process is long and painful. And if the applicant wants to apply in multiple Universities, then they have to get multiple notarized copies of their transcripts. And if they want to apply for post grad , they have to repeat the process for getting notarized transcripts.
