Graduation, Diplomas, and Commencement
All students completing requirements for a degree must apply to graduate. Deadlines for application are published in the official academic calendar. The procedures for application differ by campus. Please see instructions below specific to the campus your program of study is associated with.
Alpine Campus
Before you can graduate, an audit of your records is performed by the Registrar’s office to determine if all requirements for your degree are met. This process does not begin without an application to graduate. This application must be submitted even if you do not intend to participate in a ceremony.
Follow these steps:
- Complete the application
- Submit the application to graduation@sulross.edu and pay the appropriate fees*
*Fees are added to your account by the Registrar when the application is processed. You can then pay fees as part of your normal tuition and fees for the term. All fees must be paid prior to graduation. Payment is NOT required before obtaining a degree audit.
