Welcome, new graduate!

Congratulations on your achievements as you near the completion of your program. As a graduate of Royal Roads, you will become a member of an extraordinary community of more than 35,000 alumni from around the globe. This is no small accomplishment and we recognize the hard work and commitment it took to get you here.

This page contains important information you will need as you prepare to graduate and beyond graduation.

You’ll lose access to these resources after convocation (time sensitive)

You’ll lose access to some resources once you graduate. The following information is time sensitive and related to your convocation date.

14 days after your degree has been conferred (on your convocation date), permissions on your Academic Account will change and you will no longer have access to resources reserved for students active in academic programs.

You can download documents and reference material from Moodle before you lose access

If you wish to retain information from the following resources for future reference, please download it before you have convocated.

You’ll keep/gain access to resources, too!

Ongoing access to your student information using MyAdmin

On MyAdmin you will find convenient services such as official transcript requests, statement of grades, application to attend convocation and contact information updates. You can continue to access these services using your Academic Account (username + password) or your original MyAdmin account (personal email address + password). 

Alumni Library Services

As a member of our alumni community, you are now eligible for the library services for alumni, including an alumni library card which allows you to borrow books from our print collection, either in person or through mail.

The library’s digital resources are limited to current students due to our licensing arrangements; however, there are also other avenues that you can explore for accessing information resources post-graduation. Most public libraries have a suite of online databases that you can access from home once you are set up with an account, and many university databases are available on a walk-in basis. There are also paid for research services, such as Infoaction at the Vancouver Public Library which are affordable for a small business person or contractor. That way, you can also write off the research as a business expense and have an expert researcher do the work for you.

Access to programs through Professional and Continuing Studies (discounts available)

Your Academic Account can be used to access programs, courses, credentials, and micro-credentials through Professional and Continuing Studies. Through our Lifelong Learning Program, PCS offers a discount on select courses to alumni.
