Official Date of Graduation

The Academic Calendar for each year shall indicate the official graduation dates for the University.  (These dates should not be confused with the dates for the annual commencement exercises).  The deans shall send the registrar a list of all students in their college or school who have satisfactorily completed by the official date all the requirements for graduation.  The registrar shall issue diplomas only to those students whose names appear on the list.

The current graduation dates are May 31, September 1, and December 31.  Students certified after any of those dates will graduate officially at the next commencement.
