How to Request a Confirmation of Enrolment

You can request an official Conformation of Enrolment in UR Self Service. Confirmation of Enrolments may take 2-3 days to be processed and available in MyCredsTM | MesCertifMC. Processing times can vary and may take longer during peak request times in January and September. Requests are done in batches in the order they are received.

  1. Log into UR Self-Service.
  2. Ensure that your email address is up-to-date. Under the Home menu, choose Personal Information.

  4. Select Confirmation of Enrolment from the Document Type drop-down menu.
  5. Select your current email address from the Email Address drop-down menu.
  6. Specify the Term: Select the earliest term for which you need the confirmation and then select whether 1 or 3 terms should be included.
    • For example, if you choose "2023 Fall" as your Term, and choose "3" from the Number of Terms selection box that will appear, you will receive a Confirmation of Enrolment for 2023 Fall, 2024 Winter, and 2024 Spring/Summer.
