Notes:

1. Students will only be recommended for graduation after the successful completion of all academic, English language and/or co-curricular requirements by the cut-off date specified for each conferment exercise above. If you have not fulfilled all these requirements (including having an I-grade in one or more courses) or if the credits from your student exchange programme(s) have not been transferred to your undergraduate programme for fulfilment of your graduation requirement at Lingnan University by the cut-off date, your graduation will be evaluated at the end of the subsequent conferment exercise in which you have fulfilled all requirements.

   The English and Chinese names (if any) of students in the Banner system will be used for the printing of graduation certificates.  If any change is necessary, a student should submit the application for change of personal particulars* together with the required supporting document(s) before the cut-off date for graduation evaluation for the conferment exercise concerned.  Changes made after that date will not be incorporated into the graduation certificates.

   * Undergraduate students should submit their applications for change of personal particulars via myLingnan Portal > Academic Matters > Update of Personal Particulars (under the “Application for Academic Matters” sub-heading).
