Translations / Transcript of Records
Documents issued by ETH Zurich
In ETH Zurich’s earlier Diploma programmes, studies concluded with a final Diploma. To register for the final diploma examinations students were first required to pass the first and second interim diploma examinations. Only passing the final diploma examination signified attainment of the Diploma (an academic record in German with the corresponding details, plus a separate Diploma certificate). A Transcript of Records of the former Diploma programmes is made up of the following documents:
- a cover sheet in English that confirms the duration of study, your degree as well as the equivalence Diploma-/Master degree
- certified copies of the German diploma, the first and second intermediate examination and the final diploma examination
- from the corresponding Translations* in English
You must organise translations* of interim and final academic records and the diploma certificate yourself. Translations must match the original document one-to-one; nothing may be left out and nothing may be added (e.g., explanations).
