Diploma Information

Diplomas are mailed to the permanent legal address on record () approximately 8 weeks after commencement; however, students should confirm address information prior to the last day of the term in order to ensure diplomas are mailed to the correct address. A final evaluation of the students' academic records will determine whether a degree is posted and diplomas mailed. December graduates should expect a longer delay receiving their diplomas in the mail due to the holiday break.

NOTE:

  • Degree requirements must be completed in the term for which application has been made in order to have a degree posted and a diploma printed for that term/year, along with the submission of the Application for Degree prior to the commencement date. Students not completing degree requirements by the ending date of the term must submit a new Application for Degree for the future term in which degree requirements are completed.
