Annual University Commencement Ceremonies are held in May and December. Students who complete their degree programs in the Spring Semester are required to be present at the Annual Commencement Exercises in May to receive their degrees. Students who complete their degree programs in the Fall Semester may attend Commencement ceremonies in December. Diplomas will be mailed upon confirmation of the completion of all degree requirements by the respective Dean. Students who complete their degree programs during the summer receive their degrees at the end of the Summer Sessions, but no ceremony is held; these students may participate in the preceding May Commencement. All candidates who receive degrees at the end of a Fall Semester or Summer Session are listed in the next Annual Commencement Program.


NOTE: A student may participate in only one Commencement ceremony for each degree granted.

To participate in the May Commencement, a candidate must have successfully completed all degree requirements and must be approved for graduation, or be able to and plan to complete all requirements by the date for conferral of degrees in the following August. The respective deans of the Schools and Colleges of the University shall have the responsibility for clearing all participants in the Commencement. Those participants in the May ceremony who have not completed all degree requirements shall be so designated in the Commencement Program.
