Once grades are submitted and graduation verified, diplomas will be mailed out within 6 to 10 weeks after commencement. Make certain your mailing address is correctly listed in Blue and Gold Connection. 

Please note: The Postal Service is temporarily suspending international mail acceptance for certain destinations due to service impacts related to the COVID-19 pandemic.

While the United States Postal Service (USPS) is accurate and dependable most of the time, occasionally diplomas are damaged. We are unable to insure USPS deliveries. If your diploma arrives damaged, it can be reprinted for a fee of $25.00. Diploma folders will only be given to candidates participating in a commencement ceremony and are not available for purchase.

If you have lost or damaged your original diploma and/or wish to have a duplicate copy of your diploma you can fill out a Duplicate Diploma Order Form. Additional diplomas are $25.
