How to apply

To receive your award (certificate), you must apply to graduate online or complete an Application for award form by the due date. You'll find all Graduation forms on the Student forms page under Graduating from VU.

If you complete your course in semester 1, the due date is 1 July that year. If you complete your course in semester 2, the due date is 1 January the following year.

If you completed your course in Semester 1, 2013, applications are due by 1 July 2013.

You do not have to wait for your results to be released before applying for your award. You will receive information about attending graduation ceremonies after you submit your application.

Short courses (or Continuing Education courses)

If you have completed a short course at VU, you are not eligible to receive an academic award. Your certificate or statement will be given to you by the faculty or school who offered the course. You should not apply for an award but rather go to your department to enquire about your certificate or statement. All other students should apply to graduate.

Eligibility requirements

Overdue fees or fines

You must pay all overdue fees or fines in order to receive a Letter of Completion or graduate.

Outstanding results

As you can't graduate with any of your results outstanding, your results must be finalised and published before you can be deemed eligible to graduate by your Faculty.
