There will no longer be an annual Corner Brook Convocation in the Fall. Below is information about your options with respect to graduation and parchments:

           • Grenfell students who finish their program requirements by August 2019 should apply to graduate;

           • Students will automatically be assigned to the fall Convocation in St. John’s; however, students wishing to attend the Grenfell                   Convocation ceremony in May 2020 instead, must email convocation@mun.ca by October 1, 2019;

           • All eligible candidates will be awarded their degree and issued their graduation parchment either during the Fall 2019                               Convocation ceremonies in St. John’s or by mail at the permanent address as recorded in Memorial Self-Service, about one                     week after Fall convocation. 

           • While all degrees and graduation parchments will be issued in the fall, students can opt to participate ceremonially in Corner                     Brook in May 2020. 

Grenfell Campus is pleased to offer an academic dress borrowing service for photography outside of the regular Spring Convocation date (held in May of each year). This service is intended for photography purposes only, is available year-round except during convocation, and is free of charge. The service includes one gown, one hood (based on the degree you are graduating with) and one mortarboard cap. We only have hoods for degrees that are obtained from Grenfell Campus. If you require a hood for a degree obtained at St. John’s campus, please contact the Bookstore in St. John’s at 709-864-8084 to reserve your academic dress.

All academic dress is due back on the date that you indicate on the form below and in the same condition as it was received. Note: if you happen to get something on the hood (makeup, dirt, etc.), please do not wash the hood as they are meant to be dry-clean only. If you have any questions, please contact Debbie Giles at dgiles@grenfell.mun.ca.
