I cannot attend convocation, how do I receive my diploma?

If you are not attending your Convocation you may obtain your diploma in one of the following ways:

  1. If you are not attending your ceremony, please RSVP “not attending” on ACORN during the RSVP period.
  2. You may collect your diploma in person at the Office of Convocation. Please see the timelines for pickup below and bring your original University of Toronto TCard or valid government-issued photo identification (please note that we cannot accept an Ontario Health Card as photo identification, nor photos of your identification) with you.
  3. You may send another individual to collect it on your behalf.  That individual must provide a Fillable Diploma Pickup Letter of Authorization from you that must include the name of individual that the diploma is to be released to, your student number, degree earned and your original signature (emailed or otherwise electronically sent OR SIGNED copies will not be accepted). The authorized individual must also provide suitable identification (see timelines for pickup below).
  4. For a fee, you may have your diploma delivered to you after all ceremonies have concluded.
