Graduation deadlines

June 15: Graduate students who have not already done so must apply online to graduate through Buff Portal on the “apply for graduation” card in order to have the degree awarded in August. This is required even though there is no university-wide ceremony. PhD students must enter their dissertation title as part of the online graduation application, and the title may be updated until this deadline. This title will appear on your transcript after your degree is awarded.  

Planning to have your degree awarded in summer 2022? Preview additional upcoming graduation deadlines on the Graduate School website.
