Parchment (Digitary) Access for DCU Alumni
Students are provided with a university email address (@mail.dcu.ie), which they use throughout their time at DCU. However, It is important to note that these email accounts will be discontinued circa 12 months after graduation.
Your mail.dcu.ie email address was also your default login for Parchment (formally know as Digitary), and as such you are required to update and link your account with a personal email address before your mail.dcu.ie account expires. This ensures continued access to your transcripts and documents on Parchment (Digitary) after graduation.
Linking your Parchment (Digitary) account with your personal email address
- Log in to Parchment (Digitary) using your mail.dcu.ie email, click the dropdown menu next to your name and go to 'Account Settings'.
- Under email accounts, choose 'add another email' and enter your alternative personal email address.

- Click the link in the email sent to you, this will validate your account.
- In your account settings, you can also now mark this email as your primary email address.
