Fall 2020
1) Academic advising
2) Update on Fall Convocation 2020
3) Update on enrolment verification letter/transcript processing
1) Academic advising
If you need to talk about your course selection, you can book academic advising appointments through My Grenfell as usual. If you are unsure how to book an advising appointment online, click here.
2) Update on Fall Convocation 2020
Given the current extraordinary circumstances related to the global COVID-19 pandemic, Memorial University will postpone Fall Convocation 2020 ceremonies that were scheduled for October in St. John’s.
Since an opportunity to walk across the stage and accept a hard-earned degree is the culmination of years of hard work for many students, the Fall Convocation ceremonies will be rescheduled for those graduates who wish to participate. New dates will be determined based on venue availability in St. John’s and Corner Brook; details will be released when they are available.
Additionally, the university will conduct an in absentia graduation to ensure that graduating students are awarded their degree, diplomas and certificates in a timely manner. Memorial held its first in absentia graduation in February. You can read more about that process at https://gazette.mun.ca/student-life/level-of-service/.
3) Update on enrolment verification letter/transcript processing
In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, most of the Registrar’s Office staff and School of Graduate Studies staff are working remotely. As a result, processing and service times for many of our services have increased, including requests for enrolment verification letters, official transcripts, supporting admission documents, etc.
As we continue to practice social distancing, we are discouraging students from coming on campus at this time to drop off or pick up documents. Please do not visit our offices at this time.
For undergraduate students, requests for Enrolment Verification letter requests will only be sent out by email. Official transcript requests will be mailed out via Canada Post. At this time, any undergraduate student requesting a transcript pick up (only available in St. John’s) will be contacted directly by email from enrolsrv@mun.ca or by telephone with a pick-up time. Students may choose to have official transcript requests that were already requested for pickup sent to their permanent mailing address (please note that this option may change in the near future). Requests for study extension letters and Post-Graduation Work Permit letters should be emailed to enrolsrv@mun.ca from their @mun.ca. email address with name, student ID, program of study and graduation term expected.
For undergraduate applicants, Mail Services will continue to receive any couriered documents and deliver them to Admissions Office.
Graduate students seeking a standard confirmation of enrolment letter are asked to do so through Memorial Self-Service. Graduate students who require a letter of enrolment for a study permit extension should do so by emailing sgs@mun.ca. Please include your name, student number, and anticipated program completion date. For Post-Graduation Work Permit support letters, email sgs@mun.ca. Please include your name and student number in the request. For all letter requests, letters will then be emailed to your MUN email address shortly afterwards (normally 1-3 business days).
