Graduation
The University holds its main graduation ceremonies in summer and winter each year at which students may elect to have their degree conferred in person or in absentia. There is also an opportunity for students, who are qualified, to graduate in April each year when degrees are conferred in absentia only. There is no graduation ceremony in April. If you graduate in absentia you cannot attend a graduation ceremony in person at a later date.
It is a statutory requirement that those who graduate for the first time from the University must enrol as members of the General Council of the University and pay the General Council Registration Fee. This requirement is set out in Regulation XII "Graduation and General Council Membership" of the "University Fees and General Information for Students" section of the University Calendar.
University regulations do not permit students who have debts to the University to enrol for graduation or graduate until the debt has been paid. You should ensure that you have paid all outstanding debts (including tuition fees, bench fees, accommodation charges, library fines) before you enrol.
For information on enrolling for graduation please read the Graduation Enrolment Guide
Graduation Photography (additional sessions)
If you are unable to attend your graduation ceremony or simply wish to avoid queuing on the day of your graduation then you can take advantage of one of the additional photography sessions offered by Ede & Ravenscroft (the official photographer of the university). Gowns and hoods are provided free of charge. These sessions will take place in the Concert Hall Foyer in the Main Building between 10.00am and 4.00pm.
Dates - 19th and 20th April & 6th and 7th August.
