What a bonafide certificate is
A bonafide certificate is a letter from your college confirming that you are a regular student of a course in the current session. Banks, scholarship portals, passport offices, education loan lenders and transport offices often ask for one.
To get it, you usually submit a short application to the principal, director or registrar. The application states your name, parent's name, course, year, roll number, session and the purpose, because the certificate often mentions the purpose too.
Format of the application
- Date
- To: the principal or the right authority, college name and city
- Subject: Application for bonafide certificate
- Salutation: Respected Sir/Madam
- Body: who you are, your course details and why you need it
- Closing: Yours faithfully, your name, course and roll number
Many colleges now have a fixed form at the office or on the student portal, so check there first. Attach your ID card copy or fee receipt if asked. Only the college can issue the certificate itself.
Formats vary by college and university. Treat this as a common starting point and follow your college or department guidelines and your guide's instructions wherever they differ.
