Graduation and Commencement

Graduation

If you plan to graduate within the next year, you must check with your dean's office for graduation application deadlines and notification procedures.

Graduating students with Federal Perkins/NDSL loans must complete a loan exit interview before leaving the university.

NOTE: If you are receiving financial aid and are working on two majors (same degree) or a major and a minor and don't plan to graduate from both programs at the same time, your financial aid might be affected. For more information, contact the Office of Financial Aid (Regent 175) or call 303-492-5091.

Commencement

Commencement is held twice each year in May and December. The commencement web site has more information about the ceremonies, including dates and times, academic regalia, diplomas, and more. For commencement information, call 303-492-7205. The deadline for inclusion in the commencement program is approximately 4 weeks before the ceremony. The students must be on the list of graduating students for the semester to be included in the program.

Students should contact their respective major departments or dean's office for degree requirements.

Graduating students will receive all ceremony information via e-mail. Ceremony information is sent to the families of the graduates approximately six weeks prior to each ceremony.
