    What are Honorary Doctorates?

    An honorary doctorate is a high level academic recognition granted by a university to a recipient without completion of the normal requirements for that degree. Universities grant them to honor the recipient, while also benefiting the university by association. Recipients sometimes have no relationship with the universities, no prior degrees, and no formal higher education; though on occasion they might already have substantial education and other doctorates.

    What is the difference between a Regular and Honorary Doctorate?

    A regular degree, you can use for academic improvement like joining a higher course Doctor of Letters (D.Litt) / Doctor of Science (D.Sc) An Honorary Doctor is a status symbol it cannot be used for promotion, increment etc.

    Can I use the title “Dr” before my name is it legal?

    Yes, it is fully legal throughout the world, it can be even apostilled as any regular degree. You have to use the title as follows for example Dr. Kumar, Ph.D (hc) / Dr (hc). Kumar. “hc” stands for Honoris Causa means for the sake of honor.

    Sure, then only it will be legal.

    How to find whether the Board is real or a degree mill?

    If it is real, it should not only grant Honorary Doctorate but also regular degrees with a standard international course curriculum. It should have an examination system and library of international standards.

    Why these university grants Honorary Doctorates?

    Is it necessary to pay a processing charge for the Board for award of Honorary Doctorate?

    Yes, this the university collects to cover the expenses of a public function and a wide press coverage for the awardees if it is conducted.

    Can I contact any previous awardees for reference?

    You know well many awardees do not prefer self-publicity and prefer to keep this confidential and personal. However you can visit the university website for information on awardees / you tube for award function video. Most of the awardees of these universities have received their awards from the hands of Chief Guest.

    Is it essential that the university be recognized by the local government in your country?

    As a matter of fact the government of your country of origin has nothing to do with the rights of an international university which is a legal entity in the country in which it is chartered. However once your degree is legalized (Apostilled) automatically your degree will become valid and legal in all countries.

    Who appoints honorary doctorates?

    The Board of the Academic Area appoints honorary doctorates for the academic area. The right to appoint honorary doctors can be delegated to the President.

    Why do I have to pay the processing /nomination fees to the coordinators?

    The Nomination/Processing fee is to be paid to the coordinators to cover the administration cost, the celebration cost and also to fund the research department of the University.

    Is it necessary that the Board should have legal right to issue Degrees by its charter?

    There are many degree mills and fake universities in the world which issue honorary doctorates. You have to also understand that all legal universities need not be accredited as in many countries accreditation is a voluntary process.

    Who reviews the nominations?

    Is the honorary degree a digital file?

    No. It is a physical certificate mailed to you in a cushioned or cardboard envelope.

    Is the certificate dated?

    Yes, our honorary degrees bear the date of award (the date on which you requested your honorary degree). If you prefer that your degree is not dated, please mention this in the “Notes” section of the order process. Please note that whether or not the certificate is dated has no bearing on its validity.

    Universities can provide verification to prospective employers?

    Yes. Universities happy to provide verification when they receive inquiries

    Can I get transcripts?

    No. Because our degrees are not academic and do not require any coursework, they are not accompanied by any type of transcripts. We take pride in the fact that our honorary degrees are legitimately bestowed, and unlike other websites that “sell” degrees, we do not offer any counterfeit documents.
