FAQs
Can I bring more than 2 guests to an in-person ceremony?
We are limited by the capacity of our venues, and so we have a limit of 2 guests per delegate for all of our in-person ceremonies.
Where will the ceremonies be held?
The 2024 Diploma Ceremonies will be held in the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Glasgow’s Maurice Bloch Lecture Theatre.
How do I hire a gown / photography for the in-person Ceremonies?
Our gown and photography hire are handled by a third-party company. We will email you details on how to book the gowns, which gowns to book, and photography once you have completed registration for an in-person ceremony.
Do I have to be a current Member or Fellow of the College to attend?
Your College Membership or Fellowship must be full and current at both the times of registration and the time of the ceremony to be included. There are some exceptions to this, including MRCP(UK) candidates, or various awards winners, who do not have to hold College membership to attend.
