Update on Graduation Ceremony 2020

It is with great sadness that the decision has been made to postpone the November 2020 Graduation Ceremony. We wanted to make this decision as soon as possible before students and their families started to make plans for the event. With the Government asking universities to put in place socially distanced campuses for 2020/21, the possibility of large gatherings taking place in November unfortunately seems very unlikely.

The safety and wellbeing of our students, staff and visitors will always remain our number one priority and we did not feel that holding our Graduation Ceremony in November was a safe and viable option.

We know that this will be very disappointing news, and we want to let you know that we are busy exploring a number of options as to when the ceremony will take place. For example, in the summer of 2021 or as part of the November 2021 ceremony. We will be working with students to understand the pros and cons of these options and we hope to make an announcement as soon as possible to let you know the revised date for the 2020 Graduation Ceremony.

In the meantime, we will be arranging for all degree certificates to be posted to your permanent home address in late August. If your permanent home address has changed, please contact registry@aecc.ac.uk
