Application for Graduation

The form below is for students wishing to graduate at one of the smaller ceremonies, including MA and postgraduate ceremonies. Please note that undergraduate students taking their BA as part of General Admission will be contacted by the Praelector's Secretary separately and do not need to use this form.

Please note we are unable to put an applicant forward to the University unless you have been officially approved for your degree by your Degree Committee or the Board of Graduate Studies. Please make sure you have received your Letter of Approval before submitting your application to graduate (this does not come from the college, but your degree comittee).

PhD students who have been approved for the degree subject to minor/major corrections may apply prior to their submission, however you will not be permitted to proceed to graduation until these have been approved and your hardbound thesis has been submitted.

You must apply at least 18 days before your requested ceremony. 'In Person' - A confirmation email giving details of the ceremony, hiring of robes and Photography will be sent to you about 3 weeks before the ceremony. Timings are not released until 10 days before the event and further details will be shared with you as soon as possible. For 'in absentia' requests, a confirmation email will be sent and your Certificate & Transcript will be posted to you about a month after the ceremony date.

Tickets are required for all guests for both the Senate House ceremony and the College celebrations. All graduands are given the maximum of two tickets due to numbers.

PLEASE NOTE: Degree Certificates are generated from your 'Primary' name, NOT 'Preferred' name, so please check your name on CamSIS. To officially change your name you will need to provide Proof of ID. Any requests for name changes received after the ceremony deadline will be directed to the Student Registry Online shop to order your own replacement certificate, in your updated name. There will be a charge for this service.
