We want our graduating students, both those who were due to attend a ceremony this year and those who are waiting to attend a rearranged ceremony from 2020, to be able to enjoy the celebratory event with their family and friends at a time when it is safe for everyone to do so. We will therefore rearrange the ceremonies for a later date when it is possible to do this.  We will ensure certificates and transcripts for graduating students are posted to your home address after the end of the academic year - the timeframes for this are available on the Academic Registry website. Please ensure your home address is up to date on our student record system by checking your details here. Please keep checking our Graduation website for the latest updates.
