Graduation document processing timeline

• You should expect to receive your Testamur in the mail within 6 weeks of conferral. If you need further information you may contact the Graduation Office directly by emailing graduation.officer@anu.edu.au.  

• This is to ensure that the document states that you have been awarded. If it is printed before the before conferral, your documents will not show that the degree has been awarded. 

What will my Academic Transcript say if I order it before my graduation? 

• If you order an Academic Transcript (electronic or hardcopy) using the 'Request a transcript' function on ÌÇÐÄÊÓƵlogoHub prior to graduation, your transcript will not say that you have been awarded your degree/s. Depending on the date of purchase and completion processing, the program status may be "Active", "Approved" or "Completed". 
  
  If you would like hardcopy academic documents that reflect your conferred status, you must order after conferral.

1. Log in to using the 'Sign in with your Education Provider' button.
2. Select the Australian National University as your instruction then click 'Continue.'
3. Log-in using your ÌÇÐÄÊÓƵlogo student ID number and password. If you don't remember your login details or are having issues logging in, please contact the . 

4. Once logged on, click the 'Share' button next to the graduation document/s you wish to share. You'll then have the option to share your graduation document/s via download link, direct email from to a registered organisation or an encrypted PDF file.

• If you are due to graduate at the next ceremony and need a document to confirm information about your degree program before you graduate then you may request a completion letter (see below) and provide it with a copy of your official academic transcript. 

• A Completion Letter is a document letter that confirms the following information:
  • your completion of the requirements to be awarded your degree program
  • the degree program was conducted and examined in English
  • commencement and completion dates
  • that you will be eligible to graduate at the next graduation ceremony
     
• How to get your Completion Letter:
  • If you are conferring your program in the July or December conferral period immediately after completing your final courses, your completion letter will be automatically issued to you via your ÌÇÐÄÊÓƵlogo student email.
  • Semester 1 2026 Completion Letters:
    • Completion Letters will be issued on 15 July 2026 to your ÌÇÐÄÊÓƵlogo student email.
    • They will not be issued earlier than this date under any circumstances.
    • Please do not contact ÌÇÐÄÊÓƵlogo to request a copy or to request early issuance.
  • For all other completion letter requests, please email ÌÇÐÄÊÓƵlogo Student Hubs via student@anu.edu.au after your final grades are released. 

• ÌÇÐÄÊÓƵlogo does not certify any graduation documents as the documents you receive (physical and digital) are already official certified documents.  

• As of 1 July 2014, Australian University documents (either the original or a notarised true copy) can only be legalised by DFAT if they satisfy one of the processes of verification outlined below.
• Original ÌÇÐÄÊÓƵlogo awards containing signatures or seals obtained on or after 1995 can be authenticated or apostilled by DFAT directly on the original. There is no requirement to present them to Student Central to verify the content. The award obtained can be verified through graduate search as a matter of public record.
• Photocopies of all ÌÇÐÄÊÓƵlogo awards must be certified as a true copy by an Australian Notary Public. If it was obtained on or after 1995, the Notary Public can state in their certification that the award confers with the graduate search.
• If you would like more information about the DFAT apostille process please see: /students/program-administration/program-management/education-verification-authentication
