A. Graduation is the term used when you have completed all the requirements for your program and the University of Manitoba Senate has approved you to be granted the degree/diploma/certificate you are eligible to receive. You graduate when the Chancellor or President of the University of Manitoba confers degrees at Convocation to all graduands for that term. Convocation is the term used for the ceremony at which degrees/diplomas/certificates are conferred.
