Graduation Documents
Your graduation documents need be accurate in every detail, reliably reflecting your academic record, and supportive of college and program accreditation.
Graduation preparations include your official transcript, your program certificate, diploma or degree, and certain other items in specific cases such as a program completion letter, Health Sciences pin, and even a correctly addressed envelope for delivery.
- Students attending their convocation ceremony, obtain their graduation documents at that time.
- Students not attending their graduation ceremony are mailed documents on the next business day following the ceremony date. Please make sure you update your Canadian mailing address in your account of the Ï㽶ÊÓƵ – log into your student account and see left hand menu.
Delivery & Mailing Timelines
For graduates not attending the convocation ceremony, documents are delivered by mail. The entire document delivery process takes about 30 business days or approximately a month and a half, plus mail delivery time.
Upon the final day of your program (last day of exams, placement or co-op, or extension) the documentation process will begin. Please expect up to 30 business days for production of your official graduation documents. Mail delivery follows convocation ceremonies for those not in attendance. Documents are mailed from the college by regular post.
- Delivery time within campus regions is typically a week.
- Delivery time within the Toronto region is typically about two weeks.
Please Plan Ahead: It takes about 7 to 8 weeks to receive your college documents by mail. Be sure your address, program requirements, payments, pathway institution deadlines, employer needs, or study permit timelines are all in order for ideal document delivery.
How Documents Get Delayed
- Wrong address. Please make sure you update your Canadian mailing address in your account of the Ï㽶ÊÓƵ – log into your student account and see left hand menu.
- Outstanding payment. The College Academic Policy #A-7 Convocation Requirements states that students with outstanding fees will not receive an official transcript or certificate/diploma. Use the Ï㽶ÊÓƵ to check for your balance owing and to pay it.
- Delayed final grade. Due to extension of assignment, exam re-write, placement, or co-op, your final grade may be delayed. Be sure to let your Coordinator know when you have fully completed your program.
