Never was given Arch-Mage

[Aaron4451]

I was playing Skyrim, and completed the full College of Winterhold quest-line, but after all of that, I never got Arch-Mage status or robes.

 

Is there a console command I could use to give myself Arch-Mage?

Try one of these:

player.additem 0007C932 1

 

Or for hooded version of the Archmage Robes

player.additem 0010F570 1

 

For Archmage boots (optional)

player.additem 0007C92E 1

 

EDIT: I thought you were given Arch-Mage status but not the gear. Doi! I misread what you were asking. :-P

@Aaron4451, if you were not made the new arch-mage and given some items; then, something went wrong

at the completion of the last primary quest 'The Eye of Magnus' for the College of Winterhold.

 

You might want to try reloading an earlier save and replaying the ending part of that quest.

 

 

 

Do you remember this sequence of events happening?

 

After you've defeated Ancano (Altmer agent of the Thalmor), speak to Tolfdir.

Ask Tolfdir what you should do now, he says he has "no idea,"

Quaranir and two more members of the Psijic Order will appear, and your objective updates to speak with him.

 

Quaranir (member of the Psijic Order) should have congratulated you and declared you qualified to become the new Arch-Mage.

Psijic Order monks then vanish taking the Eye of Magnus, at this point the quest will complete.

 

You should then speak to Tolfdir (elderly mage, master wizard), he will affirm that you should be the new Arch-Mage, and

will give you the key to the Arch-Mage's Quarters and the Archmage's Robes.

Slightly off-topic, but this post reminded me of Morrowind, where you couldn't become the Magister/Archmagister (leader) of House Telvanni if you accepted promotion to the rank of Master (high-ranking council member). I never fully understood the reason for that.
