The ceremony breakdown, containing the timings that each department will graduate, will be released later this year.
Event Information
Invitations are expected to go out around in in late spring to students' personal email addresses. These can end up in the junk/spam folder so please check there in the coming months.
Please note you may receive your invitation prior to being awarded. Invitations are sent based on the predicted award date on your student record to allow all attendees adequate time to book.
Please refer to our FAQ section for detailed information. If you have any queries regarding your ceremony please contact the Graduation Office.
The student ticket booking, gown hire and photography are provided through our graduation partner, Marston. Guest tickets are booked directly through the Southbank Centre. You can find a step-by-step booking guide here.

Receiving your Certificate
Certificates are not linked to a particular graduation ceremony but to University Awards and Progression Boards. The certificates are produced on a timetable depending when a student is awarded. It is therefore very important that your permanent address is kept up to date at all times of the year using the online facility.
Certificates are produced between six and eight weeks after each Board. For Roehampton Online students, your certificate will be posted by your Student Support Team. For further information please contact them on Laureatecertificates@roehampton.ac.uk.
For enquiries from campus based students, please email the Registry Team.
Please make sure your details are up to date.
As a graduate of the University of Roehampton you are welcomed into our larger community as one of our alumni. View more information regarding Roehampton Alumni and the associated benefits.
