Certificates and transcripts

Replacement copies for alumni

If you require a replacement certificate or hard copies of your transcript you will need to contact Registry. Please be aware that while we make every effort to process requests quickly it can take up to 10 working days to provide the documents to you (in busy periods this may be extended but a timeframe will be communicated to you). 

Please note: 

  • We cannot provide digital copies of certificates
  • We can provide digital copies of transcripts and status letters free of charge if the information is available on our database.
  • We can provide digital copies of status letters for a charge of £5 if the information is not stored on our database and therefore manual archive work is required.
  • We can provide digital copies of transcripts for a charge of £10 if the information is not stored on our database and therefore manual archive work is required.
  • Certificates sent to overseas addresses can take a number of weeks to arrive.
  • Certificates and transcripts can normally only be issued in the legal name of the individual recorded by the School at the point of award; please see our Legal name policy for more information.

How to proceed

The first step to make a request or for further advice is to please email registry@gsmd.ac.uk with as many of the details below as possible and we will get back to you:

  • Full name (including middle names and previous names if changed since graduation)
  • Date of Birth
  • Student number
  • Course studied
  • Year of enrolment
  • Year of award/graduation
  • Current address
  • Reason for request

Important Note: It is not always possible to provide transcripts to past students. The ability to provide a transcript will depend on the dates of study and whether detailed records are available. We can provide electronic (scanned) copies on request but hard copies will also be sent to your address above. Following the processing of your request the information provided in the email above will be deleted and will have to be provided again for any future requests. We are unable to assist with requests that relate to Homologation of Awards and Apostille certification.

Final step:

Following your initial request, the Registry team will be in touch providing a PayPal link where payments will have to be made. Once confirmation of payment is received, your request will be processed.
