How do I receive my degree parchment if I do not attend a Graduation Ceremony?
We have Global Online students located across the world, so we understand that it may not be possible for some of you to attend our graduation ceremonies in person. If you cannot attend the ceremony itself, then you need to apply to “Graduate in Absentia.” Your degree parchment will be posted to you at your home address after the ceremony has taken place in the UK. Students within the UK will receive their certificates via Recorded Delivery, and any students outside the UK will be sent their parchment via Air Mail. You should receive your parchment six to eight weeks after the graduation ceremony. Please ensure that your contact address is up to date in your eStudent Records.
