Summer ceremonies 2026
Our graduation celebrations for summer 2026 are taking place as usual, and we invite everyone to come and celebrate your hard work and time at Nottingham with friends and loved ones. However these events will not be the official conferral of your degree, which will happen separately. This means that attending your graduation ceremony does not automatically confirm that your award has been conferred or that your certificate has been issued. Further details about how this may affect you can be found in our contingency regulations.
We are delighted to still be able to celebrate this special milestone with you and recognise all that you have achieved.
