When you need a character certificate
A character certificate is a short letter from your college about your conduct while you studied there. Employers, universities, scholarship bodies and sometimes passport or police verification processes ask for one. Both current and passed-out students can usually request it.
The application tells the office who you are, your course and batch, why you need the certificate and, if there is a deadline, by when. Only the college decides what the certificate says.
Documents usually attached
- Copy of your college ID card (current students)
- Copy of the latest or final marksheet
- Copy of the TC or degree (passed-out students), if asked
- The letter or form from the employer or university that asks for the certificate
Some colleges have a fixed form at the office or on the student portal. Check with your college office before writing a letter.
Format and sample

Frequently asked questions
Who signs a character certificate?
Usually the principal or director, and sometimes the head of department. It is issued on college letterhead with a seal.
Can a passed-out student get a character certificate?
Usually yes. Choose 'passed-out student' in the tool so the letter uses the past tense and your batch.
How recent should it be?
Many employers and universities want a certificate issued recently, often within the last six months. Check what the requesting organisation needs.
Is this tool free?
Yes. You fill a short form once when you see your first result, and the other Uncodemy tools then open without the form. Your letter details stay in your browser and are not uploaded.
