Transcript of records and study certificate

The electronic transcript of records and study certificate are PDF documents equipped with a digital signature to confirm their authenticity and integrity. The digital signature replaces handwritten signatures and stamps.

The electronic transcript of records/ study certificate may be ordered through Peppi.

Electronic documents are official only in their digital form and not as paper-printed copies, for example. They can not be modified, as any change made to the file invalidates the digital signature.

The electronic transcript/study certificate should be a valid alternative in all situations where signed and stamped paper documents are used. Whatever the transaction, if the party concerned does not accept your digitally signed document, you may request a signed and stamped paper document from an student services desk.
