Notes for Applicants
1. The graduate certificate of the University is a unique document. No duplicate copy will be issued. However, a graduate may apply for a replacement certificate in case of loss or damage to an original certificate. Application for replacement due to change of name of the graduate (after graduation) will not be accepted.
2. A graduate shall only be in possession of ONE valid copy of the certificate, including the replacement certificate for each degree and/or diploma at any given time. In other words, if a certificate, previously reported lost, was subsequently found, the graduate concerned is required to return the extra copy to the Graduate School Office (GSO).
3. A replacement certificate shall, in general, follow the current format of the graduate certificate1, with an additional statement “This certificate is reissued on (DD/MM/YYYY) [in Chinese:本證書於YYYY年MM月DD日補發]”. The replacement shall bear the signatures of the current University officers.
