Applicant FAQs

How do I submit my qualifications to be verified?

In order to submit a verification request, you must first create an online account using the unique link provided by the application organisation. Once you have completed the two-step registration process, you will have access to your online account.

Search for the name of the institution at which you obtained your qualification(s) and follow the steps to enter the required information for submission of a verification request. Your details will then be sent to the institution at which you studied to be authenticated by the appropriate department.

 
I can’t find my institution

If you are unable to find your institution in the system, please refine your search by adding filters such as the country in which it is located. The search bar uses key words to locate the institute, so perhaps try entering different parts of the university name to find it e.g. for Imperial College, you may search for ‘Imperial’ or ‘London’. If you are still unable to find your institution please contact [email protected]

Sharing Queries

 

Has my university/application organisation got my application?
How do I know if my university/application organisation can see my application?

If you have registered using the link provided by an Application Organisation, the initial verification submission(s) will be automatically and permanently shared with that Application Organisation. Please use the unique URL provided in order to register correctly. The required unique URL will contain the name of the organisation who has requested the verification of your academic qualifications. In the Sharing Centre of your I’m Verified Wallet, it should also state the name of the organisation with whom the credentials are automatically shared.

If you have registered an account not using the unique URL, please contact [email protected] for assistance as you will not be able to automatically share your verifications with your Application Organisation. If you cannot see the name of your Application Organisation in your Sharing Centre then it is likely that you have registered with the incorrect URL.

 

My Application Organisation can’t see all of my education checks?
I forgot to submit both of my degrees for my application, can I send another?

I sent two degree checks but my Application Organisation didn’t get the second one.

When you sign up, an open application is created for you. You must complete any application level questions, if there are any, and then create a single submission of one or more verifications. All verifications to be included in the application must be submitted at once. Once the first submission of verifications is completed after the application level questions, the Application will close and no further Verifications can be added.

If you have not uploaded all necessary qualifications to be checked, please contact [email protected] in order to re-open the application so further Verifications can be added.
