Academic documents after conferral

When your ºÚÁÏÌìÌÃqualification is conferred (formally awarded), the University issues official documents confirming your qualification and academic record.

  • Testamur – the formal certificate confirming that ºÚÁÏÌìÌÃhas awarded your qualification.
  • Academic Transcript – the official record of your ºÚÁÏÌìÌÃstudies, including programs, courses, marks, grades, grade point average (GPA) and program status.
  • Australian Higher Education Graduation Statement (AHEGS) – a statement describing your qualification, studies, ºÚÁÏÌìÌÃand the Australian higher education system.

 

Documents for upcoming or recent conferrals

As part of your conferral, you will receive:

  • a physical Testamur
  • electronic copies of your Testamur, Academic Transcript and AHEGS through My eQuals.

How and when you will receive your documents depends on your conferral process:

If the relevant timeframe has passed and a document expected as part of your conferral is still missing, contact Conferrals.

 

Documents for past graduates

The documents issued to you at conferral depend on when your qualification was conferred.

  • Physical: Testamur
  • Electronic: Testamur, Academic Transcript and AHEGS

December 2009 to June 2010

Accessing and sharing electronic documents (My eQuals)

ºÚÁÏÌìÌÃissues digitally certified academic credentials through My eQuals, the official tertiary credentials platform used by all Australian and New Zealand universities, along with many other higher education providers.

These credentials are authentic, tamper-evident, and legally valid, allowing students and graduates to securely share their qualifications with third parties.

When you share your documents through My eQuals, the recipient can verify that they were issued by ºÚÁÏÌìÌÃand have not been altered.

ºÚÁÏÌìÌÃdoes not send Academic Transcripts, AHEGS or Testamurs as PDF attachments by email. Electronic documents are issued through My eQuals, where you can securely share them with other organisations.

Original PDFs downloaded from My eQuals are electronically signed and can be independently verified. However, we recommend sharing documents directly through My eQuals, as this allows recipients to easily confirm their authenticity.

Additional, replacement and supporting documents

After completing your studies or conferring, you may need another copy of an academic document or a different document confirming your studies.


Evidence of completion before conferral

Your qualification is not formally awarded until conferral. An Academic Transcript issued before conferral will show your academic record and program status at the time it is issued, but will not show the qualification as conferred.

If you have completed your program and need evidence before conferral, a Completion Letter can confirm that you have completed the requirements of your program and are eligible to confer.
