Study Certificate | Study Certificate Format, Application Letter Form for School & College Students

Study Certificate: What is a Study Certificate? Why is it Required? A study certificate is an important document for students to procure after their primary/college education. This certificate has many applications – from being a prerequisite for pursuing higher education to being an evidential document for job applications in government and public sectors. However, some individuals may confuse a study certificate with a bonafide certificate – and both these certificates are NOT the same. In a nutshell, a study certificate certifies that a student has studied and cleared the examination held by that educational institution. On the other hand, a bonafide certificate shows that the student is affiliated with a particular educational institution.

Now that we have cleared the differences between the two, we shall explore how to write an application letter stating to issue such a certificate. We shall also explore the difference between school and college study certificates. Furthermore, we shall also look at the KEA study certificate, an important prerequisite for students who wish to appear in a few common entrance tests in the state of Karnataka.

Study Certificate Application Process

The application process for a study certificate is quite straight-forward. The applicant has to approach their educational institution and fill an application form. They will also have to provide evidence to prove that they were students of that institute – such as ID cards, fee receipts, marks cards or other important documents. In most situations, the applicant may also be asked to write a letter requesting the same. We have provided an example of an application letter that can be used for your educational institution.
