Custom Diploma Design — Upload Your Reference, We Build Your Diploma

Most of our customers order from the [standard catalog](/products/category/diplomas) — high school diplomas, college diplomas, law school diplomas, nursing diplomas. Our layouts cover the vast majority of common US educational credentials. But the world of educational institutions, programs, and personal circumstances is more varied than any template can capture.

If your original diploma doesn't fit a standard layout, or if you need something entirely bespoke, **custom diploma design** is the answer. Upload a reference image — a photo of your actual diploma, a diploma from a friend's institution, a historical school format, or even a sketch — and our designers will build a personalized diploma that matches your vision or original. Turnaround is 2 business days, and pricing is quote-based depending on complexity.

**Historical or now-closed schools.** A diploma from a college that merged, closed, or changed its name decades ago. Standard layouts don't apply because the institution no longer issues diplomas in that format.

**International institutions.** A degree from a university outside the US — in Canada, the UK, Europe, or elsewhere. International diplomas have different language, layouts, and seal conventions. Our standard US-only layouts don't work.

**Honorary degrees or special designations.** An honorary doctorate, a specialized fellowship credential, a corporate or organizational award styled as a diploma. These are formal but non-traditional credentials.

**Exact replication for sentimental reasons.** Your original diploma has faded, been damaged, or is too fragile to display. You want an exact replica based on the original to preserve the visual memory.

**Artistic or theatrical use.** A diploma designed for film, theater, educational video, museum display, or photography — where the layout needs to be visually specific and camera-ready.
