Graduation
Welcome to your graduation portal and congratulations on your monumental achievement!
Who is eligible to graduate?
Students who have successfully completed all academic requirements and had their award conferred are eligible to attend the ceremony. Eligible graduates will receive formal notification.
What if I cannot attend the ceremony?
Attendance at the ceremony is optional. If you are unable to attend, your degree will still be conferred, and arrangements will be made for collection or delivery of your testamur.
Do babies count as guests? Can I bring more than two guests?
Each graduate may invite two guests to attend the ceremony.
As much as we would love to welcome everyone, venue seating is limited and this includes infants and children. To ensure a comfortable experience for all families attending, we are unable to accommodate additional guests beyond the two allocated tickets.
If you are hoping to bring more guests, you may wish to coordinate with a fellow graduate who is not using both of their guest allocations. Any changes must be arranged in advance.
We appreciate your understanding as we work to make the day special for every graduate and their loved ones.
What is the graduation ceremony fee?
The graduation ceremony fee $250.00. This fee includes academic gown and hood hire, photography and canapés and light refreshments for you and your guests. Graduation is one of the most meaningful events in our calendar, and this fee supports the delivery of a memorable and professionally run celebration for all attending.
Does the graduation fee include academic dress hire?
Yes, the graduation fee includes the hire of your academic dress (gown and hood). If you choose to purchase your own academic dress, the graduation ceremony fee still applies.
Where will the ceremony be held?
Once you complete your graduation registration, full ceremony details — including venue, arrival times and event information — will be emailed to your nominated address.
We encourage graduates to register early so they receive all updates and can plan ahead with family and friends.
Institutional name and Branding Update
From 17 February 2026, the institution has adopted the trading name CIHE Australia for use in its communications and public facing materials. The legal entity name remains Crown Institute of Higher Education Pty Ltd, the registered higher education provider. This update relates to the institution’s trading name and visual identity only and does not constitute a change to the legal entity.
Certification and official documentation
All certificates and official documentation issued prior to 1 July 2026 will reflect the previous branding. Accordingly, graduates attending the April 2026 conferral will receive documentation under the previous branding.
All qualifications and documentation issued under the previous branding remain valid and formally recognised. This change in trading name and visual identity does not affect the accreditation, regulatory status, or recognition of any award. All qualifications continue to be conferred by the same registered higher education provider. If you have any questions regarding documentation, please contact us and we will be pleased to assist.
