The conferral process cannot be expedited. If you require confirmation of your award(s) for employment, visa or other verification purposes while your conferral is being processed, you can request a Letter of Completion from the ÃÛÌÒÊÓÆµStudent Hubs.

 

Before you apply

You are eligible to apply for Out of Session Conferral if:

  • All your course grades are finalised;
  • You have no outstanding obligations to the University (e.g. library fines, accommodation fees, tuition fees etc.);
  • You are not waiting for appeal or reassessment outcomes; and
  • You need your award to be conferred outside the standard July or December conferral rounds.

There are no costs associated with this process for conferral. Testamur/s will be posted to the nominated mailing address (domestic or international), and all awarded digital documents will be accessible via My eQuals.

If your conferral aligns with the main conferral periods in July and December, you will be included alongside coursework students. No Out of Session Conferral application is needed.

If you confer out of session, you will still automatically be invited to the next Graduation Ceremony. Invitations will be emailed to Alumni's email closer to the event.
