Official documentation

The Australian National University provides two forms of official documentation of results - the transcript (or academic record) and the testamur (or degree certificate.)

The transcript provides a listing of all courses and results undertaken at the University, and includes details of degrees awarded and prizes achieved. Students may apply for a transcript at any time during their studies. See the website for how to apply for a transcript.

 

The testamur is the official degree certificate and bears the University Seal. It lists the name of the degree or award obtained. The testamur is conferred at the graduation ceremony, or can be mailed to students who are not attending the ceremony. In the case of lost or damaged testamurs, see Replacement testamur.

Other documentation

Students who need to provide evidence that they are enrolled at the University may request an official letter. Please contact Student and Academic Services.
