Verification of students' results

We offer two services for universities and other third party organisations (such as a college or prospective employer) who need to verify Cambridge results. You can find out more about each service and who it is for below.

Online results verification service for universities

We can give Admissions Office staff from universities access to our secure website, Cambridge International Direct (Direct), so they can view and verify students’ results online. Results are available for the previous five years. This is a free service.

If you would like to apply for this service, please complete the online application form below.

Application form to view and verify students’ results

If you are unable to complete the online form, please submit the word document (DOCX, 64KB) version and email to us.

Once your application has been approved, we will send you login details.

If you want to update the Admissions Office staff users who have access to your institution’s Direct account, please email us.

How to use Direct:

You can find out how to verify results on Direct by reading our user guide for universities or watching our step-by-step video.

Please note that you will need to know the students' Cambridge centre number, candidate number, date of birth and the relevant exam series in order to view the results.

Third party verification of results

For results older than five years, which cannot be verified on Direct, Higher education institutions and Cambridge students can complete the Verification of Results Application Form and return it to us with a copy of the certificate to be verified when the result is unable to be verified on Direct.

Additionally, prospective employers, education results verification agencies such as WES or ICAS and employment screening agencies can apply for this service.

The result of each applicant is checked against our permanent record and the verification supplied is based wholly on that record. We will email a PDF confirmation of results to a single contact name and email address only. We are unable to send this information directly to students. A fee per certificate per student will be charged for this service, which is included on the form.
