Graduation

Graduations are a special time of year for everyone at Edinburgh Napier University. On this page, you'll find everything you need to know about graduation, from how to apply and what happens on the day to how to hire your academic dress and book tickets for guests. 

The information on our graduations pages refers to our autumn 2026 ceremonies and will be updated for our 2027 ceremonies early next year.

A huge congratulations to everyone who attended our autumn graduation ceremonies at the Usher Hall in October! More than 1,700 students crossed the stage, with a further 400 graduating in absentia.

It was fantastic to see all of you celebrating your achievements and hard work, and we look forward to seeing what you do next.
