Graduation Schedule and Eligibility

Get ready to celebrate our newest graduating class!

Once confirmed, below will include the schedule and eligibility guidelines for UCL Graduations in 2026, listed by Faculty. Dates of ceremonies will be confirmed for specific faculties and departments in February 2026, and graduates who have expressed interest in attending on Portico will receive an email confirming their exact date and time once this has been confirmed.
