Got 'em

Ok, I got my transcripts from UT. One is sealed, the other is not. Just need to get them notarized, then sent to the Secretary of State to be apostilled.*

We'll be crossing our fingers about a couple of things:

1.) That B. can notarize them today.
2.) That the Secretary of State gets them back to me by July 31st, when I'm leaving for Mexico.

For my reference: Ohio Secretary of State, apostille section.

*More about apostilles: One of the functions of the Secretary of State is to provide authentication of documents for use overseas. Authentications are in the form of either an apostille or a gold seal certificate. n 1961 many nations joined together to create a simplified method of "legalizing" documents for universal recognition. Members of the conference, referred to as the Hague Convention, adopted a document referred to as an apostille that is recognized by all member nations.

Documents sent to member nations, completed with an apostille at the state level, may be submitted directly to the member nation without further action.
