Graduate students may apply to graduate at any time prior to the Convocation date for Spring or Fall ceremonies by going into the Brock portal under the Applicant & Student Self-Serve tab and selecting the menu option Application to Graduate. Payment is made online on or before February 1 (Spring Convocation) and July 1 (Fall Convocation). A late fee is assessed after the deadline dates.

In order to graduate at the requested ceremony, all degree requirements must be completed and the necessary documentation submitted by the Graduate Program to the Faculty of Graduate Studies office six weeks prior to the ceremony. If you have paid the fee and cannot graduate at the requested ceremony, your application will be forwarded to the next ceremony date with no additional fee.

The Faculty of Graduate Studies will try to accommodate graduate programs that encounter extenuating circumstances in meeting the six-week deadline date. Please contact graduatestudies@brocku.ca or x 4490 as soon as possible in order to make the necessary arrangements.
