Not attending?

Registration for our summer 2024 ceremonies has now closed. If you haven't registered a choice of how you would like to graduate, as long as you are eligible, you will automatically graduate in absentia and receive your certificate and transcripts through the post following our July ceremonies.

There are many reasons why you may choose not to or be unable to attend a graduation ceremony.

If you are not planning or unable to attend your graduation ceremony, you can either:

  • graduate in absentia and receive your certificate and transcripts in the post and online following your graduation
  • defer your graduation until a later date

There is also an option for students in certain specific circumstances and courses to graduate via an Inter-ceremony graduation

What to do if you've registered but can't make it?

If you have registered to attend a ceremony but can no longer attend, please contact us as soon as possible.

Even if you can't attend your graduation ceremony, we hope you will stay connected with the university after you graduate.
