OFFICE OF THE REGISTRAR
Diplomas > Duplicate or Replacement Diplomas
The UAA Office of the Registrar may, at his or her discretion, authorize the issuance of a
replacement in certain limited cases. For example, a duplicate diploma may be issued in
some instances of loss or damage to the original.
Duplicate diplomas will not be issued for name changes incurred by marriage and/or
divorce. Your diploma is part of your Academic History. The name on your diploma will
be your official name on file at the time you earned your degree/certificate.
All applicants for a placement or duplicate diploma must complete and return an
application for duplicate diploma form. Verification of your signature by a Notary Public
is required. The applicant for a replacement diploma must provide a statement regarding
the loss of or damage to the original that is satisfactory to the Registrar. Damaged
originals must be returned to the UAA Office of the Registrar. Applicants seeking a
replacement for a lost diploma must agree to return the replacement if the original is
found.
Duplicate diplomas will be processed upon receipt of the completed application form and
its attachments, including a check/money order/credit card order in the amount of $25.00
(payable to the University of Alaska Anchorage) to cover costs. Please allow
approximately 10 business days after you have placed your order for the diploma to be
sent-certified mail.
