Graduation

The Graduation tile allows you to apply to graduate, view the status of your graduation application, and change your graduation options, including graduation ceremonies.

About the tile

The Graduation tile in myRMIT lists all graduation applications that you are eligible for and graduation applications that you have initiated application for. The Graduation tile will remain empty until you are eligible to apply.

Apply to graduate allows you to access the application and apply to graduate when you become eligible. If you are not eligible to graduate from a program or have any outstanding debt, the 'apply for graduation' option will not be available.

You can view the status of your graduation applications and change your graduation options, including nominating your graduation ceremony date or choosing to not attend.

You will receive a warning email advising you will lose access to RMIT systems (including myRMIT) after 48 hours of conferment.
