Australian Higher Education Graduation Statement
An Australian Higher Education Graduation Statement (AHEGS or Graduation Statement) is issued to all UWA graduands. This provides a description of the nature, level, context and status of the studies you pursued.
Its purpose is to assist in national and international recognition of Australian qualifications and to promote international mobility and professional recognition of graduates.
The statement complements and should be read in conjunction with your UWA Statement of Academic Record since it provides additional information about the course from which you are graduating.
The Graduation Statement is an initiative of the Commonwealth Government. Background information is available from the Department of Education and Training.
AHEGS were introduced in 2010 and are not available to graduates who completed their course prior to 16 November 2010.

Replacements and true copies of award certificates
True Copy of an award certificate
You are only able to have one original Degree Certificate. If you would like a copy of that certificate, you have the option of ordering a True Copy. This certificate does not bear the University’s graduation stamp but has a True Copy stamp that is acceptable on occasions when you do not wish to release your original certificate. To obtain a True Copy, refer to the form on the FAQs page. True Copies and replacements are sent by post.
Replacement of an award certificate
A replacement award certificate can be issued when your original certificate has been lost, stolen, destroyed, not received or damaged.
If you have simply mislaid your original certificate, you should order a True Copy as you are still in possession of the original certificate.
If your certificate has been damaged, you are not required to complete a statutory declaration form. In this case, complete the order form and return it with your original certificate.
To obtain a replacement certificate, refer to the form on our FAQs page.
Graduates residing overseas
Statutory declarations made outside Australia are required to be witnessed by an Australian consular official, a Justice or Notary Public under the law of that place, or anyone authorised to administer an oath or witness a statutory declaration in that place.
It is the responsibility of the graduand to carefully check course details when applying to graduate. The graduation emails and the apply to graduate portal reminds graduands of this as this information will be printed on the certificate. A conferred award is not usually amended retrospectively.
Replacement certificate for gender reassignment
To replace an award certificate due to gender reassignment, refer to the form on our FAQs page.
Award verification service
To assist third parties in verifying a graduate's UWA qualifications, the Award Verification Service provides a searchable database that confirms all qualifications received by a student. The database is comprehensive from 1985 onwards and contains a majority of the University's earlier graduate records dating back to 1917.
