Requirements for Graduation

Eligibility and Application for Graduation

Commencement ceremonies are in May at IUP at the conclusion of the spring semester and in December at the conclusion of the fall semester. Only students who have completed all requirements for graduation by the end of the semester are eligible to participate in the commencement exercises. Students who have withdrawn from courses or have elected to take incompletes or have failed courses during the semester and thus have not met the requirements for graduation may not participate in commencement exercises until those requirements have been fulfilled. Students completing requirements in August and December are included in the program list for the December ceremony.

Students are responsible for knowing and fulfilling the requirements for graduation in their degree program. It is the student's responsibility to complete a form to apply for graduation and submit it to the office of the dean of his/her college early in the term prior to graduation.

Certification for graduation is not final until approved by the dean of the college in which the student is enrolled. Diplomas will not be issued until all bills and obligations have been satisfied, including the degree fee, and final certification for graduation has been issued by the student's college dean.
