Closing ceremony Q&A

All students who are registered in their final semester are welcome to participate in the closing ceremony.

All graduating students can bring three relatives. When you, as a student, register for the ceremony, you will specify how many tickets (0–3) you would like in the registration form. Any remaining tickets will be made available after the regular registration period has ended.

No, due to evacuation safety reasons, this is not permitted.

Yes. The link will be published on the Student Web before the closing ceremony.

No, you don't need a ticket. However, your relatives will need a ticket to enter.

No.

No,

There is no official dress code for the ceremony, but many people will be dressed formally.

The diploma handed out during the ceremony is purely symbolic; it is not the same as your official degree certificate. Even if you haven’t passed all your courses, you will still receive a diploma at the ceremony. However, once all your courses are approved, you need to apply for your official degree certificate.

No, your name will only appear on your official degree certificate.
