We have two ways to apply for graduation. The preferred way is using the Online Graduation Application Process. This is where currently enrolled students will apply for graduation. for a quick tutorial on how to apply online.
If you are not a current student and need to apply to graduate, you will need to use one of the forms found under Graduation Application Forms.
Only one of the above processes need to be completed to apply for graduation.
Deadlines for applying for graduation are published in the Academic Calendar.
With either application process, it takes approximately six to eight weeks for a diploma order to be processed and returned to the Registrar's Office from the Herff Jones Company, Iola, Kansas.
