I am a student in an integrated (Diploma/Bachelor) or double degree (Bachelor/Bachelor) program
If you are conferring from an integrated program or double program in the same conferral round (i.e. a Diploma/Bachelor or a double Bachelor), you only need to make one payment as they will be mailed together. If you are conferring from two separate awards (eg. Bachelor and Masters), separate payments will be required.
I am an alumni (conferred 2024 or prior) who has not received any conferral documents
If you previously conferred from a program and have not paid for your conferral documents to be mailed, any payment received will automatically be applied to your earlier award documentation, and those documents will be sent.
