Graduating in absentia

You may graduate in absentia if you do not wish to graduate in person or are unable to graduate in person.

If you graduate in absentia:

• the Dean of the relevant Faculty will read out your name during a graduation ceremony
• your degree certificate will be sent to you by post, after the graduation ceremony, to the address you submitted on your graduation application or, if you have nominated a friend to collect your degree certificate on your behalf, can be collected from the ASC, 79 North Street, St Andrews as follows:
  • from 2pm on the day of graduation for morning ceremonies
  • from 9.30am the following day for afternoon ceremonies
