Dean's Certifications for Law and Professional Schools
Many professional schools, in particular law schools, require certification
of an applicant's undergraduate record. Dean's Certification includes a
student's dates of attendance at Dartmouth, major, minor, graduation date, SAT
score, and current or final GPA. It also will include any major disciplinary
sanctions (i.e. Conduct: College Discipline, Probation, Suspension, or
Separation; Academic: Probation, Suspension, or Separation). It is not College
policy to report the specifics of the proceedings. If you have experienced
a major disciplinary sanction, please speak with Karen Whittet, the pre-law
advisor.
At Dartmouth, the Upperclass Deans Office attests to the applicant's
academic and personal record as part of the Dean's Certification. All law
schools that require a Dean's Certification will accept Dartmouth's standard
Dean's Certification form, in lieu of their own formats.
To obtain a Dean's Certification you must open a LEO Credential file and print out and
complete the Dean's Certification request form. Submit the form to Colleen
Murphy in the Upperclass Deans Office in person (111 Parkhurst), by fax
(603-646-1405), or mail (6003 Parkhurst, Hanover, NH 03755). The Dean's Office
will forward your Certification to be included in your LEO File in Career
Services. Because of the high volume of requests we receive, you should
expect 2-3 weeks for your Certification to be processed and forwarded to Career
Services. Please plan accordingly.
