Graduation and Diplomas

OFFICE OF THE REGISTRAR

Congratulations on nearing your program completion. Please read the following instructions and contact the Office of the Registrar with any questions about degree conferral. Questions about Commencement can go to the Commencement team.

Application for Degree

In order to be considered a candidate for your degree or certificate, you must complete your degree requirements and file a Graduation application with the Office of the Registrar by the deadline indicated on the Undergraduate or Graduate graduation application form.

Please note: Degree evaluation review takes 6-8 weeks.  Diplomas are mailed approximately 8 weeks after the conferral date. If you require an official transcript noting your degree conferral, please visit www.yu.edu/transcript to order an official transcript, selecting AFTER DEGREE IS AWARDED. Within a day or two of degree conferral, your transcript request will be processed. (It is important that you clear all of your financial obligations and holds as soon as possible. Students who maintain obligations to the University will be unable to receive diplomas.)
