A degree application must be filed with the Dean of the school in which the student is enrolled before the degree application deadline. Check the Registrar's Calendar for dates. An application received after the deadline for the term in which graduation is planned must be accompanied by a $25.00 late application fee. If a late application is accepted, there is no guarantee that the diploma will be available at commencement.

Summer and Fall Commencement:
|
There are no formal commencement exercises held at the end of the Summer or Fall terms. Summer and Fall graduates may either have their diplomas mailed to the address shown on their degree application or may pick up their diploma in the Office of the Registrar approximately 4 to 6 weeks after the end of the term in which they graduate. Summer or Fall graduates may elect to participate in the next Spring Commencement exercises by so indicating on the degree application. |
|
Spring Commencement: |
Spring term graduates are required to participate in the Spring Commencement exercises. Students graduating in the Spring who feel they have reason to graduate "in absentia" must submit a request in writing to their school dean before Commencement. The dean will rule on this request and inform both the student and the Office of the Registrar of the ruling. Students receiving honors will receive notification with their diploma. The Office of the Registrar will order another diploma with the appropriate honors notation added. The "honors diploma" will be mailed to the address indicated by the student on the honors notification memo that the student returns to the Office of the Registrar. |

Replacement Diplomas: |
Request for a replacement diploma must be made in writing to the Office of the Registrar. Download the degree replacement form and instructions for completing the degree application (pdf) using free Acrobat Reader. Cost of replacement is $35.00 payable by cash, check, or money order, payable to Emory University. Processing time is approximately 6 to 8 weeks. Rquests must include the name to appear on the diploma, the graduation year, the degree received, phone number where you can be reached, and physical address.
