Graduation is a formal celebration of your academic achievement here at the Royal Agricultural University and every effort is made to ensure that your graduation day is an event you will never forget.
Graduation 2025
We are already planning for Graduation 2025 with a confirmed date as below:
- Thursday 18 September 2025
Students should visit the Ede and Ravenscroft website where you can book your own free ticket and three guest tickets, as well as booking your gown, hat, and photography. Online booking opens on Monday 14 April 2025 and will close on Friday 29 August 2025.
Please note that hiring a gown is mandatory and graduands will not be admitted to the graduation ceremony without the correct academic dress.
You do not need to know your results to book your place, so please allow plenty of time to secure and confirm your booking.
