Parchments

There may be situations where a student requires the issuing of their award parchment in advance of the next scheduled graduation ceremony. This process allows students who have successfully completed all elements for their award and who are in good standing with the University to make such an application. This process will be available in advance of Autumn and Spring graduation. 

For further details and to make an application, please click here.  

A replacement award parchment may be requested from Registry. 

Graduates will be required to legally declare that to the best of their belief their original parchment has been destroyed, or has been irretrievably lost or mislaid, and that if the original parchment is found they will return the replacement to the Registry office.  This declaration must be signed in the presence of a Commissioner for Oaths. 

If you wish to proceed in making an application, please contact the Student Awards team at parchments@dcu.ie. Please include in the subject line 'Replacement Parchment'.  The team will then provide further instructions. 

Please note there is a charge of €70 for the replacement of a parchment. This can be paid via the following link at DCU Online Payment Portal. When making the payment, please provide name, phone number and email address. Under the payment category, please choose Registry - Replacement Parchment - €70
