Placement Files
Heritage University’s Office of Career Services is no longer opening or servicing placement files for past, present, or future students. Previously established placement files (for students who graduated before 2008) have been purged after five years of inactivity.
Alumni and present Heritage University students who need this service have the choice of creating a placement file by using Interfolio, or using another online placement file service or the placement file service of another college (if any others were attended).
Heritage University has partnered with Interfolio, a third party credential management service to assist with placement file needs. Contact Interfolio at www.interfolio.com to determine the placement file service that you would like to use, establish an online account, pricing options, and enjoy 24/7 access to your file.
