We invite all our graduands who matriculated in 2018 to have their degree of Master of Arts conferred on Saturday, 24 May 2025.

We look forward to welcoming you back to Sidney and presenting you to the University at Senate House.

Your graduation ceremony is expected to take place in the late morning or early afternoon. The exact timing will be confirmed by the University in the week preceding the ceremony. A rehearsal will be held in Sidney on the morning of the event, so please plan to be available in College from 9.00am, wearing academic dress.

Each graduand may request up to two guest tickets for the graduation ceremony. Additional guest tickets may be applied for, but we cannot guarantee availability due to space limitations at Senate House.

If you are unable to attend this ceremony, you may choose to have your degree conferred in absentia or defer your graduation to a later date.

Afternoon Tea & Reunion Dinner

After the ceremony, you and your guests are invited to celebrate your graduation with afternoon tea in Sidney. The afternoon tea is provided free of charge for graduands, while guest tickets are priced at £19.50 each.

In the evening of Saturday, 24 May 2025, there will be a black-tie reunion dinner for 2018 matriculands. Drinks will be served on the Master’s Terrace, followed by dinner in Hall. Due to space constraints, we are unable to offer guest tickets for this event. Tickets are priced at a subsidised rate of £25.00.
