Process

College Verification Form (CVF)

To request that Longwood’s Office of Teacher Preparation complete a College Verification Form (CVF) on your behalf, please complete the Online Request Form.

If you’d like your completed form sent to your school division, please have a contact name and email address ready to enter at the end of the form.

Please allow 10-12 business days for the Office of Teacher Preparation to process your request.

Transcripts

Order an official transcript from the Registrar’s Office.

If you choose to have your transcript sent to yourself instead of your school division’s Human Resources Office, be sure not to open the envelope when you receive it. The transcript must remain sealed to be considered official.

VDOE Fee

Coordinate with your Human Resources Office to pay the VDOE fee and have the forms submitted to the VDOE as one packet.
