National Student Clearinghouse

In partnership with Tarleton State University, the National Student Clearinghouse provides enrollment verification for insurance purposes, military I.D. cards, student loans, etc.

The National Student Clearinghouse’s Degree Verify also allows students, alumni and employers to obtain secure automated verifications for employment purposes. This information is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and it’s the fastest and easiest way to confirm academic or degree data. The service is free of charge to all current students, former students and Tarleton alumni.

Each month, Tarleton State University submits secure electronic student enrollment information to the National Student Clearinghouse to update student enrollment status. These updates include added/dropped courses, withdrawals or being withdrawn from the university.
