vitnemålsutskrift

A vitnemålsutskrift is a Norwegian term that translates to "transcript of records" or "statement of marks" in English. It is an official document issued by educational institutions in Norway, such as high schools (videregående skole) and universities, that details a student's academic performance.

The vitnemålsutskrift typically lists all the subjects or courses a student has taken, along with the grades or marks received for each. It may also include information about the academic year or semester in which the courses were completed. For higher education, it can also show the number of credit points (studiepoeng) awarded for each course.

This document serves as a formal record of a student's achievements and is often required for various purposes. These can include applying for further education, both within Norway and internationally, seeking employment, or applying for scholarships and grants. It provides a standardized overview of a student's academic history, allowing institutions and employers to assess their qualifications.

The format and specific content of a vitnemålsutskrift can vary slightly depending on the type of educational institution and the level of study. However, its primary function remains consistent: to officially document and present a student's academic results.
