Confirmation of Matriculation / Study Confirmation

Confirmation of Matriculation

During your studies, two versions of the confirmation of matriculation are available for download as PDF files on myStudies.

The two versions are:

1. Download Confirmation of matriculation (JPEG, 138 KB)
You can use this document, for example, for tax purposes, scholarship authorities as well as for your parents' compensation fund.

2. Download Extended confirmation of matriculation (JPEG, 144 KB)
You can submit this, for example, to the Migration Office to apply for or renew your residence permit.

Both confirmation of matriculation contains an electronic seal of ETH Zurich. This guarantees that the document was issued by ETH Zurich and that it has not been altered.

The electronic seal can be read in 2 ways:

By opening the PDF file in Adobe Acrobat Reader
By uploading the file to the external page Signature Validator of the Confederation

For earlier semesters (up to and including the spring semester 2023), a confirmation of matriculation must still be ordered from the Webshop in the old format for a fee.

Study Confirmation

If, either during or upon completion of your studies, you require a detailed confirmation, e.g. for continuing study abroad, the Registrar’s Office will issue you with detailed confirmations.

These include

personal details (at the time of your studies)
field of study and duration of studies
the ETH degree (if acquired)
