Digital diplomas for graduates

From your mit.dk inbox, you have the opportunity to forward your certificate to a public authority with secure mail, in such a way that the recipient can see that the certificate is the original and has not been edited along the way.

1. Log on to mit.dk and stand in your inbox. Each message in the inbox is marked with a letter in a coloured circle. Your diploma from the University of Copenhagen has the University of Copenhagen as the sender and is marked with the letter K.
2. Click on the letter, which causes the message to be marked. The letter turns into a tick to show the mark.
3. Click on the 'Forward' button in the pop-up at the bottom of the screen.
4. Click 'Forward as digital mail'. The right side of the screen turns into a section where you must select the right recipient and, if relevant, attach a personal comment to the forwarded message.
5. Click the plus sign after the word "To:". This opens a pop-up, where you must select the institution to which you want to send.
6. Start by typing the name in the search field at the top, then press enter, and this will bring a number of search results to the list below. You can either select the institution's main mailbox or a specific sub-mailbox if you have been asked to choose one. Tick the box you choose for the mailbox.
7. Click 'Send to Recipient'. This registers the selected mailbox as the recipient of the message and closes the pop-up.
8. Finally, click 'Send', which will forward the message to the selected mailbox.

From your borger.dk inbox, you have the opportunity to forward your certificate to a public authority with secure mail, in such a way that the recipient can see that the certificate is the original and has not been edited along the way.

6. When you have found the correct authority, click on the name. The selected authority will now be inserted as the recipient of the message.
7. Then you must choose a category that is more narrowly defined in the section of the selected authority. The options will vary depending on the recipient, so you need to know what category to choose. When you have chosen the relevant category, it will be inserted as the specific recipient of the message.
8. When the authority and category are completed in your message, you can send it. Click the 'Send' button at the bottom of the message to send.

If you have changed your name in connection with a legal gender change, you can have a new diploma issued with the new personal data. You can contact your faculty, who will guide you through the process.

If you have changed your name for other reasons, it is unfortunately not possible to receive a new diploma. If you need to show the relationship between your previous and current name, you can attach a name certificate to your diploma when you need to send it to, for example, workplaces. In this way, the recipient can feel confident about your identity.
