I Don't Want to Attend a Ceremony

If you elect to collect your testamur from Ask Adelaide, Level 3 Hub Central, you will receive notification via your student email and MyAdelaide once it is available. This will be approximately two weeks after the conclusion of the in person ceremonies. Collection hours are 10am – 4pm Monday to Friday.

You will need to make sure that you bring some photo ID so that we can release your testamur.

If you still have access to manage your conferral application in MyAdelaide, you can authorise a third party to collect your testamur by following these steps:

• Log into MyAdelaide.
• Select Graduations in the menu and scroll down on the page to your Conferral applications.
• Click on the Manage Application button, go to Presentation event  and click on Update.
• Choose No - In Absentia and select Nominate someone to collect on my behalf from Ask Adelaide. Make sure that you provide the full name of the person collecting your testamur.
• Press Save.
• Then click on the Update button at the bottom of the page for your updates to be registered.

Emailing the Graduations Office and citing you nominate a proxy is not sufficient for the release of a legal document. If you did not nominate a proxy within your MyAdelaide application before the testamurs were released, you will need to complete the form.

If you are unable to collect your testamur, you can elect to have it mailed to you.

If you still have access to manage your conferral application in MyAdelaide, you will need to follow the steps below to apply for your testamur to be posted to you:

• Log into MyAdelaide.
• Select Graduations in the menu and scroll down on the page to your Conferral applications.
• Click on the Manage Application button, go to Presentation event  and click on Update.
• Choose No - In Absentia and select Post (Fees apply).
• Enter the address that you would like your testamur to be posted to, and a phone number on which the courier will be able to contact you if required when they are delivering your testamur.
• Press Save.
• Then click on the Update button at the bottom of the page for your updates to be registered.

Once you have saved your selection you will need to pay the postage fee ($15 for domestic postage and $60 for international postage). A link will appear in MyAdelaide that will take you directly to the Online Shop.

Once you have reached the Online Shop, you can pay for testamur postage by following the steps below:

1. Click Add to Cart (note, the amount will currently show as $0.00 as the postage fee is calculated once you enter your postal address).
2. Click Shopping Cart in the top right-hand corner.
3. Check the details are correct, then click Checkout.
4. If you have not used the Online Shop before, click Continue under New Customer.
5. Complete the online form to create an account and then click Continue. Important: If your testamur will be posted overseas, please ensure that you enter a phone number that you will be contactable on once you leave Australia.
6. Check that your Delivery Address is the address to which you wish your testamur to be posted AND that this matches the postage address that you entered in your MyAdelaide application. If so, click Confirm Order.
7. Follow the prompts to complete your payment.
8. Once your payment is complete, you will be directed to a web form to collect further details, such as your student ID number and the program that you have studied.

Testamurs are posted via Australia Post within Australia, and DHL for international postage.

Please note: if you do not pay the postage fee, your testamur will be sent to Ask Adelaide, Level 3, Hub Central for collection. 

If your testamur has already been released to Ask Adelaide, then you will no longer have the option to manage your application in MyAdelaide. However, you can still request postage by placing an order directly in the Online Shop. To do so, simply follow the Online Shop instructions above.
