Award Document Amendments

Ryerson University offers alumni the opportunity to have their award document amended to reflect the new program title of the program graduated from, 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 or you graduated with a Bachelor of Applied Arts that has since changed to a Bachelor of Fine Arts, you may be eligible for a degree amendment to be issued using the new program title with the university name of Ryerson Univeristy.

For more information on 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. Please enclose a cheque or money order payable to Ryerson University with your application.

Once your eligibility for an amended document is confirmed, your document will be produced and mailed to you. Please note that this process can take up to 10 weeks.

Note: All award document amendments will be re-issued under the name of Ryerson University.

University Name Amendments

Ryerson Univeristy offers alumni the opportunity to have their award document re-issued under the name of Ryerson University, if you graduated from Ryerson before it became Ryerson University, e.g. 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.

To request an amendment of your award document, please complete the Degree/University Amendment Form and submit, with the $70 fee to Enrollment Services and Student Records.

Your original document should be returned to the university with your request.  You must confirm/attest to the status of the original document (lost or damaged) if you are unable to return it (see form).

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