  • GRADUATE DIPLOMA: Academic transcript as proof of degree-level qualification.

For Recognition of Prior Learning

Students who have studied at other tertiary institutions. It is your responsibility to provide your official transcript as the College cannot request records from other institutions on behalf of students.

It is also a good idea to provide an Academic Transcript when you apply if seeking credit for previous study.

Certifying your documents

We cannot process your application if the required documents have not been certified i.e. proof that a photocopy is a true copy of the original document.  (The only exception is your passport-sized photograph that does not need to be certified).

You can either:

  1. Take the original document and a photocopy of it to a Justice of the Peace, Notary Public, Member of Parliament, a barrister or solicitor, Registrar or Deputy Registrar of the courts, or
  2. Bring the original documents to the College and show it to either the Head of Level 7 or administration staff.    A photocopy will be made and signed by the staff member as being a true and accurate copy.

Ensure the person certifying your documents states their title, stamps and signs the photocopied document as being a true and accurate copy of the original.
