DEGREE CEREMONIES

The University has taken the difficult decision to cancel degree ceremonies

taking place between September and November 2020 due to the ongoing

pandemic. This follows on from the earlier announcement cancelling

ceremonies from May to July. Students who registered to attend the cancelled

ceremonies in person will now have a choice whether to have their degree

conferred in absentia, or to attend a degree ceremony at a later date. Given

the logistical challenges involved, rescheduled degree ceremonies will have to

be modified from their current form – but the University will aim to keep the

existing format and venues as much as possible. All students affected by this

development have now been contacted direct.

Please note that due to the current situation the Degree Conferrals Office

is unable to access the office to create certificates for students. However, you

can still request an electronic degree confirmation letter via the Online Store.

Old Members wishing to supplicate for Degrees should contact Julie

Boyle in the Domestic Bursary for information and an application form on

+44 (0)1865 276682 or email: Julie.Boyle@univ.ox.ac.uk.
