How to collect your Diploma folder and certificate

For graduands attending the Graduation Ceremony

• To ensure that all diplomas are correctly issued, the diploma folder issued on stage will not contain any document.
• After leaving the stage, you will be ushered to a counter in the auditorium foyer to collect your diploma certificate, academic transcript and graduation souvenir. You may keep the diploma folder with you.
• Please return to your seat immediately. Do not remain outside to take photographs. There will be sufficient time after the ceremony for you to take photographs with your guests.

For those who are unable to attend the Graduation Ceremony

• If you are unable to attend the Graduation Ceremony, please make an appointment via NYP e-Appointment at least 7 working days before collecting your certificate from i@Central. Any certificate and academic transcript not collected after a year from date of issuance will be discarded.
• Please bring along your identification document (NYP Student Card, NRIC or Passport) for verification purposes.
• If you are unable to collect your diploma or academic transcript in person, you may authorise, in writing, a proxy to collect the diploma on your behalf. The last 4 characters of your proxy's NRIC number must be clearly stated in the authorisation letter. Your proxy must bring along his/her NRIC for verification when collecting your diploma.
• Please collect your diploma promptly. While the polytechnic makes every effort to safe keep uncollected diplomas, we will not be responsible for the loss or damage of any uncollected diplomas.
