History and Timeline
page.

team also commemorate this extensive history through physical and online exhibitions, and some of our preceding colleges’ archives are held by the team on the Lampeter campus. If you have questions or would like to see the archives,

Certificate and Transcript Requests
Need to get hold of your transcript, award confirmation letter, or new certificate? Get in touch with
Registry
. Please be aware that it can take up to eight weeks to receive your certificate.
If the Certificate/Diploma you were issued was not produced by this University (or its predecessor colleges), you will need to contact the Examination Board that issued the certificate in the first place (BTEC, Edexcel, UW, UWE, City & Guilds, WJEC etc.) for a replacement. We can only issue replacement certificates issued by this University (or its predecessor colleges). If you are looking for confirmation of the achievement of a certificate or diploma, see the Transcript request details, which also apply to requests for Confirmation of Awards or Attendance. Please note that any HND/HNC/OND/ONC certificate issued prior to the creation of BEC and TEC (later BTEC) cannot now be provided by any organisation, as the Awarding Bodies that issued those certificates no longer exist. If you attended and achieved one of those qualifications prior to 1980, you should apply for a confirmation letter, not a replacement certificate.

The University of Wales will issue replacement certificates only in specific circumstances. Details of those circumstances and an application form can be
obtained from the UW website

CNAA
The Council for National Academic Awards [CNAA] was the largest single degree-awarding body in the United Kingdom until it was abolished by the 1992 UK Further and Higher Education Act. The Open University Validation Services accepted responsibility for the care and maintenance of certain CNAA records and for providing appropriate access to them. Although it is not possible for OUVS, or any other body, to provide certificates or to issue a duplicate or replacement certificates relating to CNAA awards, it does offer a Pro-forma verification document styled in a similar format to an award certificate.
Further information

If you only want confirmation of the award you gained and the dates you attended, this will be done via a ‘To Whom It Concern’ Letter, on SMU headed paper.

If you have lost your certificate or diploma you should apply for a replacement. See the SMU Request for a Replacement Certificate/Diploma Form for full details.
Transcripts/Letters may be collected if you let us know in advance, or will be sent out by post.
If you discover that a prospective employer, other University or educational establishment or other external body (e.g. the Australian Immigration Service) requires details of the programme or module(s) content, in addition to the detail recorded on the transcript, please contact the University Records and Archives Office. If available, details for most programmes can be provided, although there is a charge (see below). Copyright issues may prevent supplying the whole document, but syllabus and module detail can be supplied.
