Booking your place

You will be asked as part of the booking process if you or your guests have any special requirements, such as wheelchair or ground floor seating. Please make sure to identify whether this relates to you or your guests. If you miss the opportunity to do this via the booking process, please let us know in advance of your ceremony by emailing mygraduation@hud.ac.uk. 

If you do not wish to shake the Chair of Ceremony or Dean's hand, please include this when booking your place by using the special requirements section of the invite. 

If you are stuck, please take a look at Step-by-step guide to booking your place which has screenshots to help you through the process.

 

If you require a letter to support your guest(s) visa application, we will be able to prepare this for you after you have booked your place online. Once you have confirmed your attendance and ordered your guest tickets, please contact us at mygraduation@hud.ac.uk and request a graduation visa support letter for your guests.

Please note that we are unable to provide you with a supporting letter until after you have booked your place at your ceremony, and you will be provided with one letter, regardless of the number of guests you invite, and it does not need to be personalised to include your guest(s) details.

If you require a visa to visit the UK to attend graduation, as either a graduand or a guest, you will need to apply for a Standard Visitor Visa. More information can be found on our website Standard Visitor Visa or you can check directly via the Home Office website Visit the UK as a Standard Visitor.
