Arts postgraduate course completion and graduation
The Faculty of Arts will consider you have completed your course after the official release of results for your final semester of study provided:
- you have met all course requirements, including both components of a double degree if relevant; and
- results have been returned for all units.
After course completion, your academic transcript will reflect that you have completed your Monash Arts course and list your major specialisations if relevant.
Course completion happens automatically in the weeks following the release of results. However, you must apply to graduate.
Graduation is where you are awarded your formal qualification from Monash University. You can elect to either attend or be absent from a graduation ceremony, and can apply once you are in your final semester of enrolment. See Graduations.
Further information on course completion is provided below:
- Are you eligible for course completion?
- Do you want to take an alternative exit from a double degree?
- Do you need proof of your course completion status prior to graduation?
- Request course completion
