Request for university diplomas
Before requesting your degree certificate, please bear the following in mind:
- IMPORTANT: Once you have paid the fees for the certificate, this means that you have formally completed your studies for the degree and so your student record is then closed. Therefore, you will no longer be able to undertake external practical training or placements as part of the educational training agreements that the CEU Cardenal Herrera University possesses with other organizations.
- The process may take a not inconsiderable amount of time, as the University must liaise with Spain’s Ministry of Education and the company responsible for producing the certificate.
- Graduates will be provided with two documents: firstly, you will receive a provisional certificate (Certificado Sustitutorio del Título). This is valid for up to twelve months, during which period it has the same validity as the definitive degree certificate (Título Universitario). After a few months, this definitive certificate will be issued and the General Secretary’s Office will notify you when it is available for collection.
- In addition, you will also be provided with a European diploma supplement, free of charge, together with the definitive certificate.
- The application process is online only. Therefore, it is especially important that you provide your personal details correctly, especially your email address. Please also ensure that your postal address is up to date: if possible, this should be your family address or main address.
Fees
The following fees are applicable for the issue of degree certificates.
- In the case of older certificates corresponding to degrees completed before the Bologna reforms (títulos de licenciado, diplomado, ingeniero técnico or arquitecto): 198 euros.
- For post-Bologna process degrees (grado, the usual case for recent graduates), issued with the European diploma supplement: 258 euros.

Once the student has completed the study programme, and the official student records have been signed and sealed, he or she can then request the certificate via the intranet. Spanish students must upload a copy of their DNI card. Foreign students must upload a copy of their national identity card, NIE card, or their passport.
The student will receive a digital version of the certificate via email within one month of submitting the request. A hard copy of the certificate will also be made available. This can be collected by the student upon presentation of appropriate ID (as detailed above) or by a person who presents a signed authorization and appropriate ID.
Requests for doctoral degree certificates are administered by CEINDO (CEU Escuela Internacional de Doctorado). Write to CEINDO at: doctoradoceindo@uchceu.es
Certificates can collected from any of CEU UCH's three campuses. However, unless the student specifically requests otherwise, the certificate will be made available for collection on the campus on which the student has studied or on which the programme coordinator is based.
The General Secretary's Office notifies students by email when the certificate is available for collection. Students can collect their certificate upon producing valid ID (DNI, passport, driving licence, etc.).
They may authorize another person to collect via a power of attorney.
Alternatively, you can authorize another person to collect by filling in this authorization form.
In the case of the Elche campus, you must book an appointment to collect your certificate. Click on the button below:
- If you live outside the Valencia region or abroad, you can request for your certificate to be sent to the nearest Spanish government office (Delegación del Gobierno), embassy or consulate. To request this, contact the certificates unit at (titulos@uchceu.es) You will need to pay for shipping, which costs 20 euros.

- Please note that there are regulations in place which enable CEU UCH to refuse to issue certificates if the student has outstanding debts.
If you lose your certificate, you can submit a request to the General Secretary's Office for a duplicate to be issued. In the case of a bachelor's, master's or doctoral certificate, you will need to pay the fee for an announcement to be made in Spain's official gazette, the Boletín Oficial del Estado (the University will arrange this for you). Legislation requires a minimum of 30 days to pass between the publication of the announcement and the issue of the duplicate certificate.
If you wish to request a duplicate so that a mention or specialism can be added to the certificate, you must submit the original certificate to the General Secretary's Office and provide evidence justifying the modification of the certificate.
