Award Document Amendments

If the degree designation of your award has changed since the time you graduated - for example, you graduated with a Bachelor of Technology that has since changed to a Bachelor of Science - you may be eligible for a degree amendment. If you wish to clarify the eligibility criteria, please call 416-979-5151 and ask to be connected to the Curriculum Advising Officer for your program or email gradinfo@ryerson.ca. Please have your student ID number ready.

To request a degree amendment, you must submit a Degree/University Amendment Application Form . The fee for a single degree amendment is $70, subject to change (exception: Food, Nutrition, Consumer and Family Studies). Please enclose a cheque or money order payable to Ryerson University with your application.

Once your application is received by the Curriculum Advising Office, your record will be reviewed to confirm your graduation status and eligibility for the amendment. Your amended document (if eligible) will be ordered and sent to you by mail. This process can take up to 10 weeks.

There is a special process for requesting the amendments for students that graduated from the Administration and Information Management, and Food, Nutrition, Consumer and Family Studies programs. For further information, contact Curriculum Advising at 416-979-5151.

University Name Amendments

Are you an alumnus who graduated from Ryerson before it became Ryerson University? If your original academic award document says Ryerson Institute of Technology, Ryerson Polytechnical Institute or Ryerson Polytechnic University, you can now apply to replace it with a new document that says Ryerson University.

If you would like to take advantage of this opportunity, complete the Degree/University Amendment Form and submit the form along with the $70 fee to Enrollment Services and Student Records.

If possible, you should return your original document along with your request. If the document is lost or damaged, you must sign and date the declaration portion of the form confirming this.

Please note due to high volume of requests, the process for approving and re-ordering the new document may take up to 10 weeks.
