Completing Your Degree

Degree Works

Diploma Request

In order to be awarded a graduate degree by the University, you must File a Diploma Request via MySlice. You need to verify your name as it should appear on your diploma, your diploma mailing address, and the date you expect to graduate. There are four available graduation dates for master’s students: Spring (May), Summer (June or August), and Fall (December). This date is not a reflection of the graduation ceremony, but rather the date by which you will complete all degree requirements. Your diploma is mailed approximately six weeks after your master’s degree is certified.

Students completing their programs in May, June, and August are eligible to participate, as well as students who finished their programs the previous December. You must File your Diploma Request by the appropriate deadline.
