Diploma
A diploma and diploma supplement are issued upon the completion of a degree or vocational training, including the one-year programme in educational theory and practice (PPU), or other programme of study that corresponds to a minimum of two (2) years of full-time study.
Your Diploma is digital and available in the
Diploma Registry. Diplomas contain the student’s grades and a description of the study programme.
If you are an international student, you will receive a paper diploma. Read more under Paper Diplomas below.
In the
Diploma Registry, you will find your results achieved at higher education institutions in Norway. Here you can share your results digitally with other educational institutions, potential employers and other parties. From the registry, you can print and share your diploma. The service is free of charge.
Access to the Diploma Registry:
To gain access to the Diploma Registry, former students must have a Norwegian national identity number or
D number. If you have a D number, you are advised to obtain an electronic ID, for example MinID.

Unfortunately, not all results are recorded in the registry. In that case, contact your educational institution and request a transcript of records or confirmation of your degree.
Students will find their digital diplomas and confirmation of grade in the Diploma Registry. International students will in addition receive a paper diploma. If you are an international student, the diploma will be sent to your registered home address (you can find it in Studentweb under “Home address”). You can update the address in the National Population Register.
NB.
If you move from Norway, you need to send an e-mail to exam@nord.no with the address to which you want the diploma sent to.
Take care of your paper diploma, it will be issued only once!
