| Your Graduation & Your Family |
Graduating this year?
If you are eligible to graduate in the Summer (July), a letter inviting you to your ceremony on a specific date and at a specific time will be sent out to you (they are sent during the first week of May). You will also receive an attendance form with this letter which you must complete and return to the Graduation Office as soon as possible.
If you are due to graduate in the Winter (February), then a letter inviting you to your ceremony to be held on a specific date and time will be sent out to you at the start of December. You will also receive an attendance form with this letter which you must complete and return to the Graduation Office as soon as possible.
This letter of invitation is proof of your graduation ceremony and is personal to you. It states your full name, student number, course details and ceremony information. This letter will be sent to you at the current contact address that you have given to the University.
If you change your address you must tell the University.
Please always keep them informed of any changes in your contact details.
Information for families attending a Graduation
If you have friends and family that require a visa to attend your graduation ceremony, then you will need to write to your guests, inviting them to your ceremony and you must enclose with your letter a copy of the letter of invitation and attendance form that will have been sent to you from the University.
There is a template letter for students wishing to invite family members over to the UK for a general visit or for their graduation.
If you have any problems with applying for extra time to attend your graduation ceremony contact the IAU.
