Enrollment Verification
An enrollment verification is used to verify a student’s enrollment at Seattle Pacific University, and is used by a number of different organizations and companies. Some of these organizations include scholarship providers, automotive insurance companies, and military dependence/identification.Â
SPU sends official enrollment information to the National Student Clearinghouse, which acts as an Authorized Certifying Agent for Seattle Pacific University. Enrollment information is transmitted after the 10th day of the quarter, after the withdrawal deadline, and again after grades are posted. Most U.S. loan companies work closely with the National Student Clearinghouse and will automatically verify a student's enrollment for loan-deferment purposes.
SPU also sends advanced registration reporting to the National Student Clearinghouse, ahead of the quarter’s start date. This information is not used for official verification purposes, but is available to students in the form of an Advanced Registration Certificate.Â
SPU Reports on the following schedule. Once reporting has started for a given quarter, we report roughly every 30 days. Submission dates vary slightly based on the academic calendar.Â
Advanced Registration | Official Enrollment | |
Summer | May 15 | July 15 |
Autumn | June 1 | October 15 |
Winter | December 1 | January 20 |
Spring | March 1 | April 15 |
