Convocation/Application for Degree
The University of Waterloo confers degrees and/or diplomas at two convocations per year, Spring (June) and Fall (October). All undergraduate students who expect to receive their degree or diploma at the next convocation ceremony must complete an "Intention to Graduate - Undergraduate Studies" form available at www.registrar.uwaterloo.ca/forms/IntentionToGraduate.pdf by the appropriate deadlines:
- Students completing degree requirements in the Fall term: December 1 (Spring convocation)
- Students completing degree requirements in the Winter term: March 1 (Spring convocation)
- Students completing degree requirements in the Spring term: August 1 (Fall convocation)
Students should note that adherence to these deadlines is critical to allow the time required for processing and an in-depth review of their academic record.
Students who have applied to graduate but do not yet qualify for their degree must submit another "Intention to Graduate" form after completing the necessary degree requirements. Their academic records will then be reviewed for the next convocation ceremony.
The name printed on the diploma must be the student's legal name as recorded on his/her academic record. Any change to this name must be supported by official documentation and submitted to the Registrar's Office by the above deadlines.
Graduands who are unable to attend convocation will have their diplomas mailed to their permanent home address by the Registrar's Office.
