Check you can graduate

Finishing your final units? Here's what to do to graduate and confirm if you want to attend a ceremony.

Confirm you're eligible

Here's what to check to make sure you're eligible.

Confirm your course completion period

Make sure your nominated completion period for your course is correct. Log in to MyInfo > Course details to check or change it.

Confirm your contact details

In MyInfo, check your personal details are up to date so we can contact you with important information about graduating and your ceremony.

Pay outstanding fees and fines

Your graduation and attendance at a ceremony may be delayed if you have any outstanding fees or fines. Let the Graduations Office know once you've made payment.

Receiving your documents

Once all requirements are met and your graduation is approved, your course status shows as 'Completed'. You're now a graduand until you receive your graduation package.

Testamur: your degree, diploma or certificate.

Statement of Academic Record: a record of your studies, including completed majors or minors. If your award was conferred on or after 12 August 2026 you will also receive a digital Statement of Academic Record via My eQuals free of charge.

Wait until your graduation is confirmed

Documents ordered before your course status is marked 'Completed' and your graduation is confirmed will be incomplete, and won't be replaced free of charge.

Your name on your documents

Your name is shown according to the order recorded in MyInfo.

Standard format: Given Names Surname, for example: John James Smith.

Reverse format: Surname Given Names, for example: Smith John James.

Need to change your name?

If your name is incorrect or incomplete, submit documents (passport or birth certificate) confirming your correct name to Student Central, and make sure your Unique Student Identifier (USI) is registered. You can still confirm your attendance at a ceremony while a name change is in progress.

Ceremony, or graduate in absentia?

If you attend a graduation ceremony, your documents are presented to you when you cross the stage. Alternatively, you can graduate in absentia and have your documents sent by registered post to your postal address in MyInfo, so make sure it's up to date. If you can't attend, you can also watch the ceremony livestream.
