Digitary CORE

ATU Sligo uses a secure online document sharing service called Digitary CORE.  Students and alumni can access and share their academic records with employers, other education providers, etc through this service.

Please find information below on how to access your information and some solutions to any issues you may encounter.

If you have any issues with Digitary or wish to request a transcript, please email examinations.sligo@nullatu.ie. 

When logging into Digitary CORE using your IT Sligo email, please ensure you only use the format StudentID@nullmail.itsligo.ie e.g. S00123456@nullmail.itsligo.ie.

There are different types of documents available through Digitary.

Shortly after examination results are released, a grademailer, otherwise know as a transcript of results, is issued to all registered students at the end of their Semester 2 and/or August studies.  It details all modules taken,  the results of each module and other important information. 

Since 2020 all students graduating with a major award will be issued with a digital parchment and those students who have successfully completed a special purpose award/minor award/single subject certificate. 
For Major awards, a hard copy parchment will be given out at conferring.  Digital Parchments will be issued to Digitary Core for Duplicate Parchments. These parchments will clearly state duplicate.
For Special Purpose or Minor awards Digital Parchments will be issued via Digitary Core as Original Parchment. We do not issue hard copy Parchments for Minor or Special Purpose awards.

Digital Parchments/Certificates cannot be issued for awards prior to 2020.  Students with outstanding fees are not entitled to receive a parchment/certification or attend conferring ceremonies.
Please note – documents will only be available via DigitaryCORE to those students whose fees are paid in full.  Please refer to your Student Account to check for any outstanding fees: My Self-Service Banner
