Graduation & Diplomas

You have officially graduated from the College only when the Registrar's office has audited your record, determined that you have met all degree requirements, confirmed your graduation date, and entered it into the computer system. It takes up to two months for your degree audit to be completed and your degree confirmed. If your degree date is not posted to your record two months after the official graduation date, please contact your advisor.

Diplomas are printed approximately three to four months after your graduation date. You will receive a letter informing you when your diploma is ready. You may pick up your diploma or authorize that it be mailed; the procedures for each are explained in your diploma letter.
