How do I make sure that I am doing the right courses to graduate?
To make sure you are completing the correct courses for your program, please refer to your program rules for the year you commenced your
program, as listed on Programs and Courses. You can also refer to Stay on track with your studies for your program to ensure you’re on-track with your studies and to help identify the courses you have remaining for your program.
If you need further assistance, CECC Student Services can confirm which courses you have left to complete in your program. You will need to email your completed degree checker template, as well as any specific questions about your remaining program requirements to studentadmin.cecc@anu.edu.au.
How do I get a transcript?
You may purchase a physical or electronic official transcript by following the instructions on the ANU purchase an academic transcript website.
You may also generate a free, unofficial statement of results from ISIS (Main Menu (compass button) > Navigator > ISIS > Academic Records > Statement of Results).
Where can I get a letter of completion?
Completion Letters are typically only necessary if they are required by an external organisation for reasons such as:
- Evidence of completed qualification to prospective employers.
- To meet admission requirements for another program (e.g. for further studies at another university).
- To meet immigration requirements.
The College of Engineering Computing and Cybernetics (CECC) will automatically generate a completion letter for all students who are approved to graduate from a CECC program (following the release of results each semester) and will email this letter to your ANU student email account prior to the scheduled graduation ceremony. You do not need to request this document, as it will be sent to you directly.
If you are not in a CECC program but you believe you need a Completion Letter, please contact your home College directly for further advice.
Do majors, minors, or specialisations appear on my transcript and degree certificate?
The majors, minors, and specialisations you are awarded upon completion of your degree will not be shown on your degree certificate/testamur. However, they will be displayed on your official academic transcript.
If I’ve completed the requirement for one of my degrees (in an FDD), can I graduate from just that one?
If you wish to graduate from just one of your degrees while completing a flexible double degree, you will be required to apply to graduate in advance.
Students can apply by filling out the form found on the ANU application to graduate website, where you may also find more information about this process.
When will I receive my graduation invitation?
You can expect to receive your invitation via email to your ANU student email account by the end of May (for July ceremonies) or October (for December ceremonies). If you do not receive your graduation invitation in this time, please contact CECC Student Services.
When will the graduation ceremony be?
Please see the ANU graduation day website for further details.
I can’t attend my graduation ceremony, what should I do?
If you are unable to attend your graduation ceremony, you have multiple other options. You can either graduate in absentia (graduate but not attend the ceremony), or defer your graduation. You can apply for these options by responding to your invitation to graduate on ISIS.
For more information on both options including how to apply for them, please visit the ANU graduation website.
Will deferring my graduation change my testamur dates?
Your testamur and academic transcript will display the date that you graduated from your degree, not the date of your ceremony. The University is unable to change this date.
How many guest invitations will I receive for the graduation ceremony, and what if I need more?
Students are guaranteed up to two guest invitations upon indicating that they are attending the ceremony. You will be required to choose whether you plan on having 0, 1, or 2 guests attend.
Students may also apply for up to three additional guest invitations by entering a ballot.
For more information on both of these subjects, please visit the ANU guest invitations for graduation website.
What should I do to prepare for my graduation?
The ANU provides a checklist for students to ensure they are prepared for their graduation day. Topics to keep in mind are checking that your personal details on ISIS are correct and hiring your graduation regalia.
For the full checklist, please visit the ANU Graduation preparation website.
