Graduation ceremonies at King’s take place twice a year – in July, our summer ceremonies, and in January, our winter ceremonies.
- Invitations will be sent in mid-April for July ceremonies.
- Invitations will be sent in mid-November for January ceremonies.
If you have not received anything from us in the relevant period for your ceremony, please get in touch with the graduation team through their contact form.
Certain types of debt mean that your results will not be seen at the relevant examination board and you will not receive an award. If you have an outstanding debt to the university this could therefore mean that you may not be able to attend the ceremonies.
If you wish to attend one of the ceremonies, we advise that you clear any debt you have to the university no later than 10 days before your Examination Board. If you don’t clear your debt on time, we unfortunately cannot guarantee that you will be permitted to attend a ceremony, and your place may be cancelled.
From October 2023, students whose graduation was affected by the COVID-19 pandemic are no longer eligible to attend a graduation ceremony. This is to ensure there is sufficient space for current graduating students.
