Students who intend to graduate shall specify the graduation month well in advance of the scheduled graduation date. This can be done in the Ugla intraweb, when reviewing course registration, autumn and spring.

The candidates who cannot attend the ceremony can collect their certificates at the Service desk in the University Centre, after the ceremony.

 Good to know

Students graduating with undergraduate- and graduate studies receive their Degree Certificate and the Diploma Supplement at graduation. 

The Diploma Supplement provides a standardised description of the nature, level, context, content, and status of the study programme completed.

The Diploma Supplement also contains a transcript of records.

The Diploma Supplement is issued in a widely spoken European language, given automatically and free of charge to every student upon graduation.

The Degree Certificate is issued in Icelandic with a certified translation into English, but the Diploma Supplement is issued in Icelandic and English.

Candidates are advised to preserve their Degree Certificates well!
Each degree certificate is only issued in a single copy, signed by the respective head of faculty.

The degree certificate is never, under any circumstances re-issued. It is the responsibility of the candidate to safeguard the certificate.
