Celebrating Your Achievements and New Beginnings

 

Graduation marks the successful completion of your academic journey and the moment you officially receive your diploma, bachelor's, master's, or PhD degree. This milestone reflects not only your academic achievement but also your readiness to embrace new challenges — whether you're continuing your studies or stepping confidently into the professional world.

Need to check your next steps after completing your studies? Here’s a quick guide to important graduation-related topics. Find out more about your transcript, convocation, further study options, and more.

To be eligible for graduation, you must fulfill the following:

Academic Completion

Academic Completion

Successfully complete all programme requirements, including the necessary credits and compulsory modules (e.g., major, minor, and electives), with no outstanding courses or prerequisites, and achieve the minimum Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) / Weighted CGPA (WCGPA) set by the programme—typically a CGPA of 2.00 or higher for Diploma, Bachelor's and Postgraduate qualifications.

Administrative Clearance

Administrative Clearance

Settle all outstanding matters, such as library fines, tuition fees, and other institutional obligations.

Graduation Verification

Graduation Verification

Your award will be officially conferred once all academic and administrative requirements are verified. Your certificate will then be issued to mark this achievement. Your graduation status must also be verified and approved, and your name included in the Senate-approved graduate list to be officially recognised as a graduate.

Important: Please ensure the accuracy of your name. All documents, including your transcript, letter of award conferment (LOAC), certificate, and your name in the convocation booklet, will follow the name listed in your Student Profile. You must verify and correct your name (if needed) in the Student Profile Updates page before the Graduate List is finalised. Changes will not be allowed after the list is approved.

Types of Document
Collection Process

1

Official Academic Transcript

Provides a complete record of your academic performance, listing all modules you have attempted, including passes, fails, and withdrawals where applicable. It serves as an official document verifying your results and progress throughout your studies.

2

Letter of Award Conferment (LOAC)

Confirms your completion status and includes the estimated date of your convocation or certificate collection. Often required for job or further education applications.

3

Official Certificate

Confirms you have completed and been awarded a degree, diploma, or certificate. Taylor’s may also issue additional recognition, such as the SHINE Award, for achievements in curriculum or extracurricular activities. These are also known as testamur, parchment, or completion certificates.

  • Your transcript and LOAC are issued after Senate approval, typically within two (2 )weeks to three (3) months after the release of final results.
  • Notifications will be sent to both your personal and Taylor's email when your documents are available for download on the Campus Central Portal.
  • Your certificate will be presented at the Convocation or made available the next working day if you are unable to attend. You are advised to clear all the outstanding fees or library fines with the University before collecting your certificate.

 

If you require a letter from the University for any reasons (e.g. job employment application, post graduate studies etc) before these are ready, you can download a Letter of Completion and an interim full transcript from the Campus Central Portal under Self Service Document Printing, two (2) weeks after the release of final results (upon the update of your status as 'Completed Programme').

DIGITAL CREDENTIALS
ACCESS TO PLATFORMS AFTER GRADUATION

As part of your graduation, you will now receive digital certificates in addition to your physical certificate. These are issued through Accredible, a trusted platform used by many renowned universities, associations, and tech companies worldwide.

 

Your digital credentials provide immediate access to your academic achievements and can be easily shared on platforms such as LinkedIn to support your professional presence. They are also secure and verifiable, with Accredible using encrypted blockchain technology to store an unchangeable record of your certificate, protecting against fraud.

 

This reflects Taylor’s ongoing commitment to making sure your academic accomplishments are globally recognised and appreciated.

 

For a full breakdown of how digital credentials work, including access, timelines, support channels, technical guidance, and more, please refer to the Frequently Asked Questions section.

Once you have officially completed your studies and received your full academic transcript along with either your award letter or certificate of completion, you will continue to have access to several Taylor’s digital platforms for an additional 365 days.

 

This extended access is provided to help you transition smoothly as you prepare for the next chapter—whether it is entering the workforce or pursuing further studies. The platforms you can continue to access include:

  • Campus Central: For important records and service requests
  • myTIMeS: To revisit learning materials or resources
  • Taylor's Student Email: To stay in touch with lecturers and peers
  • OneDrive: To retrieve and back up your personal files and assignments
  • Taylor's Mobile App: For easy access to services and updates on the go

 

Note: Please make sure to back up all your files, documents, and emails before the 365-day period ends. After this grace period, access to these platforms will be permanently disabled, and you will no longer be able to retrieve any content stored within them.

Refund Eligibility

Refund Eligibility

If you are an international student, you may be eligible to receive a refund of your Bond Deposit—also known as the International Security Deposit upon the successful completion of your studies. However, this refund is subject to specific conditions.

  • Your Student Pass must be properly cancelled through the official process. If your Student Pass has not yet been cancelled, please contact the International Office at internationaloffice@taylors.edu.my for assistance.

  • Academic Transcript
  • Letter of Award Conferment (LOAC)
  • Certificate

If you have any questions about the refund status or the required steps, we encourage you to reach out to the International Office or Campus Central for clarification.

Processing Timeline

Processing Timeline

 

Once the requirements are fulfilled, the refund process typically takes around two (2) months.

 

Here is what to expect:
