Graduating in absentia or deferring your graduation

If you are unable to attend your graduation ceremony you can choose to either graduate in absentia or defer your ceremony for up to one year. You can select to do either of these online when you receive you email inviting you to register.

• Graduating in absentia means you will receive your award but not attend the ceremony.  If you choose to graduate in absentia you will not be able to attend a ceremony at a later date.
• Alternatively, if you are unable to attend your graduation you can defer your ceremony for up to one year.
• If you are not attending or wishing to defer, you should confirm in the student system by Wednesday 1st July 2020, and ensure your details are up to date (home address, email address, name).
