Transcripts

Prospective employers and other institutions may require you to provide a detailed record of the courses which you have taken and examination results. In this case you should apply for an academic transcript.

Important:- if you are a currently registered student and you simply wish to check the information we hold you can do so on-line. To check your courses other academic/personal information and your exam results please use MyCampus.

At graduation students receive transcript information along with their degree or diploma parchment.  From the summer of 2012 the Higher Education Achievement Report (HEAR) will replace the current European Diploma Supplement.
