Please note that if your degree has not yet been approved, any confirmation you receive from Churchill College will be subject to your degree being approved by your Department at least one week before the chosen ceremony date; please also note that the College is not informed of this directly, so you must take responsibility for checking that you have been approved to graduate in time.
