Students who are unable to attend can have their awards mailed to a nominated address. University prizes are listed in the Student Handbooks. Students eligible to graduate may either attend a graduation ceremony for the appropriate faculty in Townsville or in Cairns or have their award conferred in absentia. Students who request to graduate in absentia, will be mailed their certificate to a nominated address and will then be unable to participate in a future ceremony. Information regarding the graduation ceremony will be forwarded three weeks prior to the ceremony.
Academic dress is compulsory.
An 'Finalisation of an Award - Graduation' form will be mailed out in early December to students who earlier indicated on their 'Application for Enrolment' form that they will complete their studies this year. Students wishing to graduate are asked to complete the form and return it to Examinations and Ceremonies. Applicants who have failed to show identification in an examination room or who have any outstanding fees or charges will not be approved to graduate. Forms are available at Forms or from Examinations and Ceremonies for those students who would like to graduate and do not receive a form. Content by Woodward, Julie .
