Unfortunately it is not possible to postpone your conferring.
If you are unable to attend your conferring you will be conferred 'in absentia'. You will be still required to register online by selecting the award you will be receiving along with the 'in absentia' option. Please note, if you select the 'in absentia' option you will automatically be removed from the attending list.
If you wish to amend your registration, please ensure you notify the RCSI Conferrings team as soon as possible. If you opt to be conferred 'in absentia' you will receive your parchment in the post in the days following the conferring.
Your graduation day is a big celebration for you, your friends and family. To honour the occasion Lafayette Photography are available as official graduation photographers to capture the moment and provide beautifully presented photography for you to treasure.
To enable you to spend more time with your loved ones on your graduation day, the onsite Lafayette studios are open two hours before each ceremony (close 45 minutes before the ceremony is due to begin), and reopen again after the ceremony.
Pre-booking is recommended so you can activate your online account, view packages and prices, and have your photographs taken before the ceremony (scrolls are provided for this purpose).
Photographs can also be ordered on the day, but please note that only debit/credit cards will be accepted.
The Lafayette service includes picture framing, certificate framing and photo enhancements.
If you have any queries, please feel free to contact the team by telephone: +353 (0)1 429 5740 or email: info@lafayette.ie.
