Notice:

We are aware there were some issues surrounding the Spring ceremony date displayed in the Student Center and on the Convocation Registration and Ticketing site. We have worked to fix these.

If you are still seeing an incorrect date displayed please email degrees@uwo.ca. Please include your student number in the email.

To confirm your date please refer to the approved Order of Convocation that can be found here.

Students who attend the June convocation celebrations in person will receive their diploma at their respective ceremony. View the June Order of Convocation here.

Graduating students who cannot attend their ceremony in person can come to Student Central to pick up their degree 3 days following their confer date OR they can order the diploma mailed to them through Student Center or have Western hold the diploma until they attend a future convocation ceremony (within the next 2 years). A transcript will NOT show the degree conferred until your convocation date has passed.

For those students who graduated in In Absentia, you can download this statement to use with any VISA applications to attend the ceremony.

If you have graduated within the previous 2 years you are eligible to request to participate in either the June or October in-person convocation ceremonies. There will be a limited number of Walk-on spots for each ceremony and you will need to register in advance to ensure there is space for you to Walk-on. Registration for Walk-ons will open in late May.
