Enrolment Online will be unavailable from 1:30pm AEST on Saturday 19 July until 12:40am AEST on Sunday 20 July due to scheduled system maintenance. You will be unable to apply to graduate during this time. Please apply outside the outage period. 

Apply to graduate

To graduate at a ceremony, you must first apply to graduate in Enrolment Online. When you apply, you'll be asked to select the ceremony you want to attend.

If you don't want to graduate at a ceremony, you can apply to graduate in absentia instead. 'In absentia' means that your award is conferred without attending a formal graduation ceremony. These options determine when you'll get your graduation statements. Read more about your graduation options.
