All students need to submit a Graduation Application for the term in which they will fulfill curricular requirements to receive their degree. To apply, click on the “Application to Graduate” link in your student profile in 91ֱ����ƵCompass before the listed deadlines.

The degree conferral date is the specific date your degree is officially awarded. This date is listed on both your diploma and transcripts.

Please note that if final grades arrive late or if the Intent to Graduate Form is submitted late, it may delay the degree conferral until the next available date, or delay the mailing of the diploma. Students who complete degree requirements between official conferral dates may request a Letter of Degree Completion from the Registrar’s Office if needed for employment, licensure, or further studies before the next conferral date.

Students who complete their degree requirements in the Fall, Spring, or Summer terms can take part in the May Commencement Ceremony. However, each student is only allowed to participate in one Commencement Ceremony for their degree. Additionally, graduate and professional students will be invited to attend their program’s hooding ceremony and can also take part in the university commencement ceremony.

Students who are within two course requirements of completing their degree and plan to take those courses in the Summer following May Commencement can apply to participate in Commencement before finishing their degree. These students must submit an Application to Graduate by January 30th and will receive ticketing information from the Office of Student Affairs.
