Graduation

Has your name recently changed ?

The name you declared when you applied to your program is the name that will be printed on your parchment.

If you recently changed your legal name, or need to make a correction to your name, please let us know as soon as possible. If you’re unsure what name is on file, send us an email and we’ll let you know.

Have you recently moved or changed your personal email address?

Your MyAdmin account lets you access your student record and provides many administrative services you may need as an RRU alum.

Keep your contact information updated. If anything changes, please update your MyAdmin account. 

How will I know I’ve graduated?

Once you graduate from your program, you'll receive an official email notification from our office letting you know your credential has been conferred and you've graduated.   

Our office will also upload a Confirmation of Graduation (COG) letter to MyCreds™. 

When your COG letter is ready you'll receive an email from MyCreds™, which will include information on how to register and activate your MyCreds™ account. 

Once your account is set up, you can pay for and share your COG letter. You'll need to purchase at least one share credit in order to view or print your COG letter. If you do not access your COG letter, you will not be charged a fee. 

Questions? Please contact our office.

When will I receive my parchment?

After you graduate, our office will mail your parchment to the address we have on file within 4-6 weeks of your graduation date. 

Please make sure your address is up to date in your MyAdmin account.

When can I order my transcripts?

Your transcript is the official record of your academic activity at RRU. It includes all your programs, courses, grades, and credentials. You can request a transcript from our office anytime by visiting your MyAdmin account.

When can I request my Post Graduate Work Permit letter?
