All registered graduates receive a confirmation email after registration in the form. Please check your spam folder and if you did not receive a confirmation email within 2 days, try to register again. If the form does not allow you to register it is because you have already done so you will receive the final schedule later and that email will also serve as a confirmation email since only registered graduates will receive it.
Within 5 working days of registration, you will also receive a confirmation message.
The registration form will be available until September 30th. After this date, we will have to evaluate registration on a case-by-case basis, due to the capacity of the pavilion.
