Where this office has jurisdiction.

The issuing school—not your current address—determines the Italian office that reviews your file.

Selected jurisdiction
Massachusetts

Academic records issued here route to the Consulate General of Italy in Boston for Declaration of Value review.

District boundaries, clarified

Boston covers all of New England except Fairfield County, Connecticut, which files with New York. Each New England state issues its own apostille, so the state of the signing school official decides where the apostille comes from.

Filing intelligence
  • The apostille comes from the state where the school official signed, not from Massachusetts by default.
  • Fairfield County, Connecticut files with New York — everywhere else in Connecticut files with Boston.
  • Boarding and independent schools often need a head of school rather than a registrar as the authorized signer.

Explained

What is a Double Statement Letter?

It is one letter from your school making two statements the Consulate General of Italy in Boston must see before it can value your degree. It is the single most common reason a file is returned.

A student-signed copy or personal affidavit cannot replace this registrar-issued letter.
