Apply to Graduate (Required)

Graduation Application

If you are planning to graduate in fall or spring, you must submit your application via by the end of the add/drop period for the semester in which you intend to graduate. If you plan to graduate in summer, you must apply to graduate via by the end of the add/drop period for the preceding spring semester.

Make sure the address shown on your application will be the address where you will still reside for 6 weeks after graduating. This is where your diploma, official transcript, and rank letter (for JD graduates) will be sent.

If you will be moving within 6 weeks of the commencement ceremony, change the address to your new one, or to a permanent address.

Review your name as it is shown on the graduation application, as this is exactly how your name will be spelled on your diploma. Submit changes at this time if needed.

Submitting a graduation application will trigger a final degree audit of your record. If you are a joint degree student (JD/MA, JD/MBA, JD/MS) and you are graduating in both programs, you must complete two separate applications on听; one for each degree you are completing.
