Guest tickets

All graduands are guaranteed 2 guest tickets, these must be requested through My Manchester when you register your intention to graduate. 

(Please Note: there are separate instructions for Global MBA Students.) 

The deadline to do this is midnight Wednesday 1st July 2020. 

No further tickets will be allocated prior to the ceremonies.

However, there is capacity to accommodate additional guests in our dedicated live screening venue in Theatre A, University Place (37 on the campus map). 

Guests are assured of an excellent view of the ceremony, including a close up view of each individual graduand as they are presented.

In the extremely unlikely event that there are any additional tickets available for your ceremony, these will be allocated on a ‘first come first served’ basis on the day when registration opens for your ceremony. 

However, it must be noted that it is unlikely that additional tickets will be available. 

Therefore, please do not rely on this and do not make arrangements on an assumption that more than 2 guests will be seated in the Whitworth Hall.

You will receive an email confirming your registration the week commencing the 6th July.

You will need to show this email at the registration desk, University Place (37 on the campus map) when collecting your tickets on the day of your ceremony.

You cannot collect tickets or register more than 2 hours before your assigned ceremony.

Outstanding debts

Tickets will only be issued to students who have a published result (degree has been fully awarded). It is University Policy that Degrees shall not be conferred upon any person who has a debt outstanding to the University.

Therefore, if you have any debts due to the University, such as unpaid fees or fines, or books not returned to the Library, these must be settled by Wednesday 1st July 2020.

If you settle any debt after this date, you will be allowed to attend but your name will not appear in the official programme. 

If you are in doubt about your debts to the University please make early enquiries with the University's Credit Control Team on 0161 275 8130.
