Graduation

Queen Mary holds two graduation ceremonies each year:

  • Summer Ceremony
  • Winter Ceremony (usually mid-December)

The Ceremonies Office will contact you a few months before your graduation with booking details for you and your guests.

You may need to book your place before your results are confirmed—this is standard practice due to event timelines. If you do not pass, you can withdraw from the ceremony.
