Applying for Graduation
There are three graduation dates every year, in May, August, and December, but only two commencement ceremonies (May and December). August graduates are automatically eligible to participate in either the May or the December ceremonies.
You do not automatically graduate once you earn 120 credits. LSA students must apply for graduation. The reason for applying is to have the College officially verify that you have satisfied all the requirements for your degree.
