Graduation FAQs

Parchments/Transcripts

Q: Can I take courses after I graduate? If so, does it affect my GPA?

Yes; you can take courses as a Visiting Student following your graduation date. The grades you achieve in these courses will affect your cumulative GPA but it will not change your standing on graduation (Honours or Distinction).

Convocation

Q: If I was unable to attend Convocation, how do I receive my parchments?

Your parchments will be sent to you via mail following the Convocation proceedings, to the address we have on file for you. Make sure this is correct!
