Glasgow School of Art | Registrar

The office of Registrar was created in 1943 when an Assistant Registrar was appointed to relieve the School's Secretary and Treasurer of some of his duties. In 1945 the office of Deputy Director and Registrar was created and these two posts remained combined until 1975 when an Academic Registrar was appointed. In 1995 the post of Academic Registrar was split into two posts, Head of Academic Services and Registrar. In 1998 the Registry was reorganised, the title reverting to that of Academic Registrar. An Assistant Registrar was appointed in 1999.

The Registrar's department was responsible for arranging the admission, matriculation and graduation of the students of the Glasgow School of Art. The department provided support for the School's quality assurance and quality enhancement procedures, academic appeals and research and general academic administration.

The School's Continuing Education Department and Student Services both reported to the Academic Registrar.
