Preparing for your Graduation

Documents required to apply for graduation are:

Valid Civil ID copy

Valid passport copy

Valid residency copy (for Non Kuwaitis)

High School copy and its required documents (for Diploma students)

Application to Defer Graduation

Students can apply to defer their graduation in order to repeat courses and improve their GPA in accordance with the terms of the Grading Policy. Students wanting to defer their graduation must submit a Deferral of Graduation Form attaching all required documents by the advertised deadline. It is the students’ responsibility to inform themselves of the academic and financial implications of deferring their graduation. Students should always contact their Academic Advisors before initiating a request to discuss the implications of their decision.

Students who fail any unit will not be requested to submit an application to defer graduation as the graduation unit will not process their graduation.
