GENDER NEUTRAL DEGREE COMENCLATURE

Gender-neutral degree nomenclature (Baccalaureate, Magisteriate): Graduates who have previously been awarded a Waterloo degree may request that their degree be re-issued in the gender-neutral nomenclature.

The gender-neutral term (Baccalaureate, Magisteriate) will only appear on your diploma. Transcripts and any degree verification will only refer to the traditional nomenclature (Bachelor, Master). This terminology discrepancy between documents may result in border-crossing issues.

DIPLOMA SIZE

Diplomas are produced in the current 15.5" X 10.5" size. Diplomas issued prior to 2011 were issued in a different size and that size cannot be replicated.
