Duplicate Degree

Please use the link below to order a duplicate degree. The link will forward you to Parchment as if you are requesting your transcript but instead, you are requesting what Parchment calls, “Academic Credential.” When making the request you will be asked to provide the year you attended MEC and the year you left. When prompted for your Student ID, you will enter your SS # but leave 1 number off as Parchment only accepts 8 Numbers and your SS is 9.

Once we receive your duplicate degree request we will then process the degree and you will be notified through Parchment.

Preferred Name Request Form

While CUNY recognizes the importance that a change of name might have to students during their time with the University, a preferred name is not a legal name but is generally used to change how others refer to you. For this purpose, students may identify a preferred name to be recorded in the student system. No documentation is required to have a preferred name recorded. Documents and records that may display a preferred name include, among other things, course rosters, student identification cards, student email addresses, and other documents issued by the University. A preferred name will not be reflected on, among other things, a student’s official academic record, diploma, or transcript. The Preferred Name Request Form can be accessed here.
