Late Degree Applicants
Those who apply after the deadline may obtain one master's/C.A.S. Commencement informational postcard beginning March 23 from the Graduate School Office upon submitting a degree application. The postcard will be validated to verify the Graduate School's receipt of your degree application.

Beginning with Commencement Kickoff on April 8, and continuing through May 9, you may take the validated postcard to the bookstore to register for Commencement and obtain guest tickets. Learn more about the master's registration process.

Please note: While we make every effort to print all graduates' names in the Commencement program booklet, those who apply for their degrees after the deadlines are not guaranteed listing in the program.
