Conferring of Degrees - General Information

The yearly timetable for the conferring of awards can be viewed on the Graduation Allocation schedule.

Following the official release of final results in July and December each year students should go to their eStudent account and carry out the following steps:

1. Click on "My Results and Graduation" – your final results will be visible here.

2. Click on "Check for Graduation" – the award you have qualified with will be displayed together with your individual graduation ceremony location, date and time.

3. Graduation information will be sent to all qualified students by STUDENT EMAIL.

4. Your graduation status will remain on "HOLD" in eStudent until you have confirmed whether or not you will be attending your graduation ceremony – please refer to the Graduation information. If you do not respond to the Graduation Invitation and your status remains as HOLD, you will graduate in absentia and cannot attend a subsequent ceremony

Note:   Students graduating with a postgraduate or undergraduate certificate, study abroad diploma or certificate will not attend a graduation ceremony.  Your graduation documents will be mailed to you as soon as possible after the graduation series has concluded.
