What is an Award Certificate? 

Your Award Certificate is a legal document, verified by UCL, which evidences your award.

After completing your degree and receiving your results email from UCL with your final results, you will receive your Award Certificate.  

Now available in a digital format, you can more easily share your Award Certificate with third parties to evidence your achievement. For example, to support applications for jobs, future studies and visa applications.
