Graduation January 2022 to be rescheduled

We are enormously disappointed to confirm that in light of the emerging public health crisis and with infection rates expected to peak in mid-January we can no longer hold our planned graduation ceremonies at Liverpool Cathedral in January 2022.

The ceremonies, due to take place from Monday 10th to Thursday 27th January inclusive, will be rescheduled and all graduands who were invited to attend will be given the opportunity to graduate at a later date in 2022.

A Message from the Vice-Chancellor and the Dean of the Cathedral

“The decision to reschedule our graduation ceremonies has not been taken lightly. We know that all of our guests will be bitterly disappointed but in the context of a public health emergency, we have a responsibility to our community in Liverpool and to the 40,000 anticipated attendees to keep everyone safe. The partnership between LJMU and the Cathedral is important to both of us and we made this decision in complete agreement. Be in no doubt, we will provide a graduation ceremony for every student who has missed this milestone celebration and we look forward to restarting our graduation ceremonies in 2022.”
