How to Access Your Digital Diploma

When your credential becomes available, you will receive an email from our trusted partner, Paradigm, Inc. (info@paradigm-corp.com), with a secure link to download your credential.

This link is valid for a limited amount of time. To request a new download link, please use the CeCredential Trust site to resend the link to your student email account. If you no longer have access to your student email, please submit a Diploma Request (ServiceNow), and include your NUID. (Forgot your NUID? NU alumni can locate their Northeastern ID numbers by emailing alumni@northeastern.edu or calling Alumni Relations at 617.373.2656.)

Marymount Manhattan College alumni will use the same process to access digital diplomas.


How to Validate a CeDiploma

Employers, State Government Licensing Agencies, and any other entity that wishes to validate a CeDiploma can do so using Validation Services. CeDiplomas are digitally signed and encrypted. For security reasons, the electronic credential cannot be printed.

Some characters in the CeDiD may be difficult to distinguish at a glance. If you're having difficulty validating, try viewing your code in a different font to ensure that you have entered the correct characters and numbers. 

Marymount Manhattan College CeDiplomas can be validated here.

Note: CeCredentials are not available for conferral dates prior to March 2020 or for undergraduate or graduate certificates.
