Replacement Parchments
Degrees or certificates that have been misplaced, damaged, destroyed, or that need a name change can be replaced by the NOSM University Office of the Registrar at a charge of $50.00 in addition to a delivery fee if it is requested that the replacement be sent by mail. A Replacement Parchment Request Form along with all necessary supporting documentation must be submitted as part of the request. It is the responsibility of the requestor to return the original parchment and pay the associated fee before a replacement can be distributed. In the event it is not possible to return the original parchment, a signed and sealed statutory declaration from a Notary Public is required in its place that affirms the parchment was misplaced or destroyed and specifies the requestor’s year of graduation, first name, last name, and date of birth. Please download and complete the Replacement Parchment Request Form and email it to registrar@nosm.ca.
