Preventing diploma returns
AU/CFRR receives 40-50 diploma returns per month due to invalid/outdated mailing addresses listed in student records. To prevent this problem, before testing students need to contact the AU Registrar office with any address changes. Students may submit their address change request to https://www.auecampussupport.com/vdoc/index.jsp. The request should include the student's full name, last four digits of their SSN, and a current mailing address.

The AU Registrar/Student Records personnel print and mail diplomas for the following distance learning courses: Airman Leadership School Distance Learning Course (Course 1), NCO Academy Distance Learning Course (Course 9), Senior NCO Academy Distance Learning Course (Course 14), Civil Air Patrol Senior Officer Course (Course 13), Squadron Officer School Correspondence Course (Course 20), and Air Command and Staff College Correspondence Course (Course 30).
