The In-Person Atlas experience

The Atlas Service Center will be providing complimentary notary services. Services are offered from 10:00 am to 3:00 pm. Please email the Atlas Service Center at atlascenter@mit.edu to schedule an appointment. In compliance with Massachusetts law, please produce to the notary public evidence of identity in the form of a current document issued by a federal or state government. This document must contain both your photo and signature. An MIT ID by itself is not sufficient, so please bring this document in addition to your MIT ID.

Guidelines:

• DO NOT sign your document in advance. All documents must be signed in the presence of a notary. The document must be completely filled out prior to meeting with the notary, leaving no blanks other than signature and notary statement.
• The document must be in English.
• Photocopies of documents must be made in advance prior to notary appointment.
• If the document must be witnessed, you must provide your own witnesses.
• The notary cannot notarize wills or the authenticity of vital documents (passports, birth, death or marriage certificates). This must be done by the issuing entity to obtain certified copies.
• If document(s) requires more than three notarizations, please email atlascenter@mit.edu with a request to set-up an appointment directly with one of the notaries.
