Order a Transcript of Studies

You can order an electronically verified transcript of studies in Sisu. Please see here for detailed instructions for placing an order.

If you cannot order a transcript in Sisu (e.g., your user account is not valid):

1. You can share information on your studies through the My Studyinfo service. My Studyinfo is an official database maintained by the Finnish National Agency for Education, with information encompassing, as a rule, all your higher education studies and study rights as of 1995. The My Studyinfo service enables you to restrict the information on completed studies you wish to share. Information can currently be shared in Finnish and Swedish. If you need a transcript of studies in English, please see item 2 below.  

Logging in to the My Studyinfo service requires identification with an online banking ID, a mobile certificate or an identity card with a chip. Log in to the My Studyinfo service

NB! New information on completed studies can be accessed in My Studyinfo with a delay of a few days.

2. You can send an order request to studentinfo@helsinki.fi. In such cases, an electronical transcript of studies will be delivered to you by email. Be sure to indicate your student number when placing the order. 

If you need an official printed transcript, please read the instructions below. 

You can obtain one official printed transcript of studies free of charge per term if you are an attending student (including students pursuing exchange, non-degree and Open University studies as well as studies under the Flexible Study Right Scheme JOO) and you hold a valid right to study.

You can collect the transcript from Student Services or order it to be delivered by post.

Exchange students can also collect a transcript of studies from Student Services or order it to be delivered by post during the term following the end of their right to study. If the term ends before they collect the transcript, they cannot receive one afterwards.

All those who have completed studies at the University of Helsinki can order a printed transcript of studies subject to a fee from the Student Services service points at Kaisa House, Viikki, Kumpula and Meilahti. Contact details for service points.

Because the service points have no petty cash available, you must pay for the transcript in advance. You can pay for it in cash, with a debit or credit card, or with your student card at the UniCafe locations listed below. You can also pay the transcript fee directly to the University of Helsinki account.  

You can collect the transcript from a service point or order it to be delivered by post. If collecting the transcript, please bring a receipt of payment with you.

The fees for transcripts of studies:

• €5 each if retrieved
• €10 each if mailed

UniCafe locations where you can pay the fee:

• City Centre: Porthania UniCafe (Yliopistonkatu 3)
