Certification, Authentication and Verification (CAV) Application of Academic Records for Red Ribbon

Hi guys! I had secured my DFA Authentication Certificate  or Red Ribbon  for my Diploma, TOR and Certificate of Graduation recently. That's my first time so I decided to write it down and share with you. In addition, it will be my future reference in case I need to get one again. There are three entities involved in the process namely; the School/University where you graduated,  CHED,  and DFA. So first, I went to my school, Saint Louis University Baguio City, all the way from Makati for my CAV application. The entire process (Step 1,2 & 3 below) took me for less than 30 minutes so I lingered for a while and went back home afterwards. Secondly, the CHED part is not a problem. SLU took the responsibility of coordinating my application  with CHED. Cool! right?! Yeah! Lastly, I went to DFA to claim my Red Ribbon documents.   ...so let's get down to details. |REQUIREMENTS: Original & Photocopy of the Following: 1. Diploma 2. Transcript of records 3.
