University of Divinity Graduate Attributes
The University of Divinity approved five Graduate Attributes in 2012 and these continue to provide strong guidance. The Attributes shape all the University’s courses of study with each course and unit of study aligning its Learning Outcomes with the Graduate Attributes. These Attributes establish the University’s aspirations for all of its graduates.

Census Dates
The census date is the final day on which students can withdraw from a unit and receive a refund of tuition fees, and have the unit removed from their academic transcripts. Students who withdraw from a unit after the census date for that unit will not receive a refund of fees and will have the unit recorded on their academic transcript. The census dates for standard 12-week semester-length units are listed in the key dates for the academic year. Every unit is assigned a census date.
