Visascreen - Highschool Diploma Problem

Silverdragon102, BSN · Feb 20, 2008

Hi guys, the visascreen application is stressing me out, BIG TIME.
I wanted to know what if the high school where I obtained my secondary education is closed but I do have an authenticated xeroxed copy of my high school diploma? Can I send it to CGFNS?
My high school is not even in the Philippines but it's in Saudi Arabia.
I honestly don't know what to do. It's so frustrating. :-(
Thank you

All I sent was a copy of my leaving exams but if your schooling is over 10 years I believe it is waivered. I would try with your copy, am sure they will let you know if it is wrong

Responded to your e-mail on this same topic and question. Look for my answer there.

Thank you, thank you so much to you both for replying so swiftly. I appreciate it.

I called CGFNS already the operator told me to just send the high school diploma myself.

hi, i have the same problem. my high school also closed down. would it be enough just to authenticate my diploma at the dept of foreign affairs? what other instructions did the cgfns operator tell you? suzanne,

High School Diploma only needs to be a copy and that is waived if you graduated more than ten years ago.

There is nothing that requires that it be one from the actual school. They are more concerned that you began your nurse's training after you graduated from high school.
