Once you have collected your regalia, you are required to arrive one hour before your ceremony at the Student Marquee on Great Court North (outside the main Winthrop Hall hall entry) from where you will process to Winthrop Hall.

Ceremony start times are listed on the Graduations website and also in studentConnect.

Your guests will need to be seated no later than 30 minutes before the commencement of the ceremony. Entry into Winthrop Hall and the Live Streaming venue is unreserved and by ticket only.

Formal proceedings will commence at the nominated time of your ceremony and the duration of the ceremony will be approximately 1.5 - 2 hours depending on the number of graduands graduating.

Light refreshments and photography/framing services are available after the event.
