A statement letter is an official document prepared by the Arts and Science Faculty Office, Student Services, used for various purposes, including degree verification, confirmation of enrolment and/or academic standing, ranking letters for professional schools and teacher qualification letters.
Statement Letters
Statement letters may be ordered through Student Services by filling out the form and submitting it by email or dropping it off in person (main floor, Dunning Hall). Payment must be received before the letter has been produced. Payment may be made online using the "Pay Now" button on the Statement Letter Form or using the link at the bottom of this section.
Statement letters are considered confidential documents and therefore cannot be ordered or released to anyone but the student unless authorized by the student to do so. Once we receive the request the processing time is 5 to 10 business days.
Standard Statement Letters cost $12 and the following are available to request:
- Certification of degree requirements.
- Confirmation of academic standing.
- Dean's certification form and/or letter (Comparative ranking standard for BAH; BSCH for professional schools). Qualifications Evaluation Council of Ontario (Teacher qualification services).
- Other administrative services (such as mid-year grades, plans to return, etc).
Specialized Statement Letters
There are times when a normal statement letter is insufficient to address a current student or graduate’s needs. These types of letters are complex and require significant time and research to complete, such as a list of scanned archived course descriptions or a breakdown of learning hours.
These letters cost $50 and we require 3 weeks to process them.
