Graduation

We will be releasing the eligibility criteria for our 2025 ceremonies in the Spring. 

All communications will be sent to both your students Unimail and personal email addresses, so you won’t miss out on any information. We recommend that you add graduation@winchester.ac.uk onto your list of safe senders.

Your degree certificate will be printed with your full name, as recorded on your student record. This should match your full legal name (i.e., the name on your passport, birth certificate, driving licence, etc) at the time of study.

If you’re changing your name due to gender identity, we encourage you to get in touch with us so we can make sure your record correctly reflects your new name.

It is your responsibility to make sure your full name is correct on My Record before you finish your studies. If there are middle names missing, or anything is mis-spelled, please email graduation@winchester.ac.uk with a copy of some official photo ID and we will update this for you.

Please note that once your certificate has been printed, it will not be possible to change your name – except in exceptional circumstances.

If your degree is awarded between September 2024 and May 2025, this will be posted out to your home address as shown on My Record.

If your degree is awarded from May 2025 onward, you will receive your certificate at your graduation ceremony. If you do not attend graduation, your certificate will be posted to your home address
