Introduction 

Dear Graduate, 

This brochure aims to provide you with all the information you will require about your Graduation ceremony.

The University has an excellent reputation for making its ceremonies enjoyable occasions. However, for them to run smoothly, 

careful organisation and the co-operation of all involved are essential – so please read this brochure carefully and take action 

where you need to. 

If you have any queries regarding graduation, please email graduation@winchester.ac.uk. 

We hope that the occasion of your graduation proves an enjoyable one for you and your guests. 

Yours sincerely,

Essential information 

Tickets for Graduation 

As a graduand, you will not require a ticket to enter the Cathedral but you must wear appropriate academic robes. Your guests 

must show their tickets in order to gain admittance to the Cathedral. 

Graduands attending the ceremony are guaranteed two guest tickets. You may request extra guest tickets on the appropriate 

section on the booking form, but please note that some ceremonies are larger than others and the availability of extra tickets will 

depend on demand. This year numbers are very tight and it is unlikely that you will receive more than 2 guest tickets. It is 

likely that any graduates who do gain additional tickets will be allocated 3 as a maximum. Additional tickets will be allocated in 

as equitable a way as possible. 

We are unable to confirm if you have been allocated any additional guest tickets until you receive your tickets. Your tickets will 

be sent to your home address during the week commencing 10th September 2012. You are advised to make initial travel and 

accommodation arrangements based on the guaranteed ticket allocation. It is not possible to give any commitment regarding 

extra tickets. Tickets are not allocated on a first come first served basis. 

If you are unable to gain all the guest tickets that you would like, your additional guests may like to wait outside the Cathedral to 

see the graduates as they come out. The large West Door is opened and University staff form a funnel and clap out the graduates 

and this is quite a spectacle. The graduates then spend some time outside the cathedral meeting friends and taking photographs 

etc. There is usually quite a festive atmosphere outside the cathedral. You can wear your academic robes all day and make a day 

of the event, wearing your robes out to lunch, tea etc. 

Special requirements 

If you or any of your guests require wheelchair accommodation or any other special arrangements, please note this on the 

booking form. You can also contact the Awards Officer on 01962 827253 or via graduation@winchester.ac.uk to discuss. If you or 

any of your guests have mobility problems, we can issue you with a permit which allows you to drop off members of your party 

directly outside the front of the Cathedral. Unfortunately we are unable to provide parking spaces for you at the Cathedral so you 

will need to park the car in one of the various car parks in the City. If you would like the details of disabled parking available in 

Winchester, you can phone the Winchester Parking Office on 01962 848346. 

If you have any special requirements in terms of mobility, sight, hearing etc, please get in touch and we can discuss how we can 

help you. We will review with you how we can best accommodate your individual needs. Assistance might include such things as 

seating you in the best seat, providing you with a personal usher to guide you on the day, asking the Chancellor to come down 

the Chancel steps to greet you (she is extremely happy to do this) or providing a wheelchair ramp up the Chancel steps. Staff at 

Graduation are very experienced and are keen to assist graduands in getting the most out of their Graduation day. 

Academic Gown Hire 

You cannot have your award conferred without the proper academic dress. J. Wippell & Co, the robemakers to the University, 

are responsible for the hire and sale of academic dress and you can hire your academic dress via their website at www. 

wippellgownhire.co.uk. Alternatively you can telephone them on 01392 254234. See the J.Wippell page later in this brochure for 

further details. You are advised to order robes as soon as possible (and certainly no later than 21 days before the ceremonies). The 

robemakers will cancel orders and refund payments if subsequently the robes are not required. 

Hats for all students, apart from PhD students, are the mortar-board pattern of black cloth with black silk tassel. Mortar-boards 

should not be worn in the Cathedral (you may leave your hat on your seat or carry it with you when you receive your handshake 

from the Chancellor). 

Examples of academic dress are available when you log on to the Wippell’s website. 

When ordering your robes, you will need to know your award. 

Your award will be one of the following: 

City and Guilds qualification 

Foundation Degree 

Higher National Certificate (HNC) Bachelor of Arts 

Higher National Diploma (HND) Bachelor of Science 

Shoei Certificate 

Bachelor of Laws/LLB

* Please indicate if from the University of Southampton or from the University of Winchester. If you are unsure about your award, 

please check with your Faculty or College or Registry. You can email graduation@winchester.ac.uk if unsure.

Academic Gown Collection 

On the day of your graduation, you will need to collect your gown and hat from the Winchester Guildhall prior to your ceremony. 

If your ceremony is in the morning, you can collect your gown from 08:00 am. If your ceremony is in the afternoon, you can 

collect your gown from 11:00 am. All gowns should be returned by 5.30 pm. The Winchester Guildhall is in the centre of town 

approximately five minutes’ walk from the cathedral. You may find it useful to bring some safety pins to help hold your hoods in 

place. 

Admittance to the Cathedral 

Admittance to the Cathedral for graduands and their guests will be one hour prior to the commencement of the ceremony. 

Guests must show their tickets. Entry is via the North Aisle doors located on either side of the main large red West Door at the 

front of the Cathedral. Ushers will direct you and your guests to the seating areas. Guest seating is in the Main Aisle and North 

Aisle. Guests can sit where they like within the guest seating areas. Members of your party do not have to sit together. Please see 

the diagram of the layout of the Cathedral. 

Please Note: Your guests must bring tickets in order to gain admittance to the Cathedral which will be closed to the general 

public from 8.30am – 4.30pm. The Fire Regulations do not permit standing at the rear of the Cathedral. 

Graduands will be seated in the Main Aisle and will be placed alphabetically within subject order. Ushers (staff) will ensure that 

you sit in the correct place. Ushers will also help you to file out in the right order and at the correct pace. 

The Ceremony 

Programmes are provided on the day so that everyone will be able to follow the proceedings. The ceremony will commence 

with staff and dignitaries processing into the cathedral and the audience is asked to stand for this. After the opening prayer, the 

Chancellor will declare the ceremony open. This is followed by an opening address from the Vice Chancellor. An Honorary Degree 

and/or Honorary Fellowship of the University will then be conferred as applicable to your individual ceremony. 

The Dean of Faculty will read out the names and you proceed in small groups to file up the Chancel steps, pause and file across 

in front of the Chancellor who shakes your hand (thereby conferring your award). You then proceed down the South side of the 

steps, collect your certificate from University staff at a table in the South Aisle and return to your seat. Ushers will be on hand 

to show you where to go. If you have already received your certificate, you will probably be handed an envelope containing a 

congratulatory letter. 

The congregation may be instructed in the programme to applaud each group rather than individuals. 

At the end of the ceremony, guests are asked to remain standing whilst the procession and the graduates leave the Cathedral via 

the West Door. At the West Door, staff, in their academic robes, clap out the graduates. This is quite a spectacle and if you are 

unable to obtain all of the guest tickets that you wanted, some of your friends and family may like to wait outside to see this. 

Graduation Photography and DVDs 

The Dean and Chapter of Winchester Cathedral do not permit photography or the use of camcorders or mobile phone cameras 

in the Cathedral, other than by authorised staff, and you are asked to cooperate in this by taking whatever photographs or 

recordings you wish outside in the Cathedral grounds. 

Tempest Photography (the University’s only authorised graduation photography company) will be providing a graduation 

photography service inside the Guildhall next to the room where the gown hire takes place. You can have official photographs 

taken before or after your ceremony. Photographs cannot be pre-ordered before the day. A still photograph is also taken of each 

graduate as they shake hands with the Chancellor in the Cathedral and is available to order from the Tempest website. See the 

Tempest Photography page later in this brochure for details of the service that they offer or visit their website at www.tempestgraduations.co.uk 

Tempest Photography are the only photographers recommended by the University of Winchester. There may be other 

photographers in the area offering graduation photography packages. Please be aware that the University of Winchester does not 

endorse any other photographers and we strongly recommend that you use only Tempest Photography. 

Each ceremony is filmed and you are very welcome to purchase a copy of the recording on dvd from the University’s only official 

video/dvd company Cam 3 Media – see their information later in this brochure. You can pre-order dvds from www.cam3media. 

co.uk or order them on the day from the Cam 3 Media stall in the Guildhall which is situated next to the gown hire. 

Graduation Ball 

A Graduation Ball is being organised by the Winchester Student Union and will take place on the evening of Saturday 10th 

November 2012 at the Vault at the University of Winchester. Further details are available later in this brochure. 


Debts 

If you have any outstanding debts to the University your award certificate will be withheld and you will not be eligible to attend 

your graduation ceremony. 

It is your responsibility to check that your account is clear. Debts to the University include unpaid academic fees and charges, 

accommodation fees and charges, library fines and unreturned books or equipment. Please also note a debt will be noted on 

your account if your sponsor has not paid your fees. You should have received reminders from the University regarding any 

outstanding debts (unless the debt is with your sponsor). If you have not already done so, it is important that you respond to 

them urgently. 

If, at the time of sending out the tickets, you owe money, books or other equipment to the University, you will not be allowed to 

attend your graduation ceremony. You will not be sent confirmation that you can attend nor any tickets for your guests. You will 

also not receive your award certificate until you have repaid your debt. 

Award Certificates 

Please inform the Awards Officer immediately if your name is incorrect on the Graduation Invitation. The name which appears on 

this Invitation is your full name as we have it recorded on our records information system. This is the name which will appear on 

your award certificate. In order to amend your recorded name, you will need to produce your original birth certificate, passport or 

other relevant legal document. 

Graduates should take great care of their award certificate as only one original is produced. Written application for a certified 

true replica of an original, which has been lost or badly damaged, may be made to the Awards Officer. Currently a charge of 

£20.00 is made for the production of replacement award certificates. 

Where graduates require certification of photocopies of their original certificate, this can be arranged at a cost of £3.00 per 

photocopy. Please send your original certificate via recorded delivery to Registry. Registry will return all certificates via recorded 

delivery. 

Frequently asked questions 

What must I do in preparation for my graduation? 

There are 2 things that you must do: 

1. You must book for your ceremony by Friday 24th August 2012. Please follow the instructions on your Graduation Invitation. 

Please note that if we have not heard back from you by this date, we will assume that you will not be attending graduation. 

2. You must hire the appropriate academic dress for the occasion from Wippells – the University’s official gown supplier. To do 

this you will need to log on to the following website: www.wippellgownhire.co.uk. 

What happens if I cannot attend the ceremony? 

If you are unable to attend your ceremony, you must follow the instructions on your Graduation Invitation and tick that you will 

not be attending. Your degree will then be conferred ‘in absentia’. Your name will appear in the programme but will not be read 

out during the ceremony. Your certificate (and a copy of the graduation programme if available) will be posted to your home 

address after the ceremony if you have not already received your certificate. 

My particular ceremony date is inconvenient. Is it possible to swap to another ceremony? 

It is not possible to change a date as the ceremonies are held by Faculty. If the date is inconvenient, you may choose to graduate 

in absentia. 

What happens if I change my mind about attending or change the number of tickets that I would like to request? 

If you change your mind, please contact the Awards Officer in Registry via graduation@winchester.ac.uk or by telephoning 01962 

827253. 

How long does the ceremony last? 

The ceremony normally lasts about one and a half hours but this depends on how many students are graduating and whether or 

not an honorary degree or honorary fellowship is conferred. 


What happens if I am late for my ceremony? 

If it is possible to seat you before your name is read out you will be able to participate as normal. If you arrive after your name 

has been read out then you have missed your opportunity to graduate in person and will be deemed to have received your 

award ‘in absentia’. You will still be able to sit with your fellow graduates and your certificate will be available directly after the 

ceremony ends. 

Can I bring children to the ceremony? 

Children are welcome at all ceremonies. They will need a guest ticket unless very small and able to sit on a lap. We would caution 

that the ceremonies are quite long and may not be suitable for young children who may become bored. 

What should I wear? 

There is no strict dress code but graduands and guests usually wear smart clothes. Please be aware that the floor of the Cathedral 

is an uneven stone floor and graduands will be asked to walk up a few stone steps to greet the Chancellor so graduands may wish 

to consider wearing suitable footwear and avoid excessively high heels. 

Where can my guests park? 

There is no parking available at the Cathedral and public car parks will have to be used. Fortunately, there are several long and 

short-stay car parks within easy walking distance of the Cathedral and the Guildhall and these will be marked on the map which 

will accompany your tickets. The Parking Office (01962) 848346 can also advise you on parking in the city. 

How much does graduation cost? 

The University of Winchester is one of the few remaining institutions which does not charge for graduation. The only compulsory 

cost you will incur (apart from your travel costs to and from the ceremony) is your academic dress hire which you pay directly to 

the gown hire company. 

A friend of mine has not received a graduation invitation, can I let them have the details from mine? 

Please do not pass the graduation information onto other people. There could be a good reason why your friend has not received 

an invitation – we may not at this stage be expecting him or her at the ceremonies. Please ask your friend to contact the Awards 

Officer immediately so that they can (if appropriate) be sent their own invitation and be included in the graduation programme. 

A friend of mine requires extra tickets, I am no longer able to attend the ceremony, can they have mine? 

Please do not pass your tickets to your friend, we need to monitor the number of tickets given to each person and we keep a 

record of the ticket numbers of each graduand’s allocation. Please return the tickets to the Awards Officer. 

Will there be commemorative items for sale? 

The company Graduation Gear are selling commemorative T-shirts and champagne. Items can be pre-ordered – see the 

advertisements later in this brochure – or purchased on the day from Graduation Gear at their stall in the Winchester Guildhall. 

Their stall is situated close to the Gown hire. 

What refreshments will be available on the day? 

Refreshments are available through various catering outlets in Winchester and graduands and their families and friends can 

choose whichever refreshments suit them i.e. formal lunches and dinners or refreshments in pubs or tearooms. Catering 

establishments are listed in this brochure and you may find this useful when making reservations. 

How can I arrange overnight accommodation for myself and my guests? 

Some hotels are listed in this brochure and, in addition, the Winchester Tourist Information Office has a list of hotels, guest 

houses and bed and breakfast accommodation. Please contact them directly on 01962 840500 or via www.visitwinchester.co.uk 

Will I receive any further information regarding my ceremony? 

You will receive a letter which will confirm your attendance at your ceremony and will include guest tickets. The letter will 

include details of arrival time and a map showing car parks and the venues. It may be useful for you to bring this brochure and 

your confirmation ticket letter with you on graduation day.

Careers Service 

Did you know? 

You can still benefit from individual guidance, 

use our careers resources, attend any of our 

talks, workshops, employer presentations or 

careers fairs and use our JobShop database. If 

you have moved away from the area, please 

contact us by telephone or email for further 

information and advice. You might also like to 

register with Graduate Jobs South if you want 

to find work in the local area. 

In December you will receive a letter and 

questionnaire from us asking what you’re 

doing now you’ve left - this is something all 

universities do every year. We are interested 

in your destination, no matter what it 

is – working, studying, taking time out or 

something else. 

Please help us by filling in the questionnaire as 

fully as possible and returning it to us as soon 

as you can. 

Many thanks
