Australian Higher Education Graduation Statement (AHEGS)


Australian Higher Education Graduation Statement (AHEGS) is a Commonwealth initiative that has been introduced to improve the recognition and portability of Australian qualifications.

The AHEGS Provides information on a student's higher education qualification, including a record of all subjects undertaken within the specified degree/award, the institution where the qualification was obtained and the Australian higher education system in one easy-to-read document.

AHEGS is only available for Western Sydney University students who have graduated from April 2011 onwards. This document may not be accepted by all external parties, it is your responsibility to enquire if they will accept an AHEGS or require a Transcript.

Students receive an AHEGS in either hard copy or electronic format (depending on their conferral date), with the purchase of their official conferral (graduation) documents once they have been conferred.  To order your official conferral documents, refer to the Conferral and Academic Documents webpage.

If you wish to have an additional AHEGS or an electronic AHEGS, place an order via the Academic Document ordering system.
