Attention December 2025 and January 2026 Graduation Candidates

[Jessica Lashway]

SENIORS & GRADUATES! If you are planning to graduate in December 2025 or
January 2026 and want to participate in the *December* commencement
ceremony, a graduation application must be submitted! File your application
now to ensure your name is listed on the commencement web page and that you
have time to obtain your cap and gown.

All degree and certificate undergraduate and graduate candidates are
required to submit a graduation application.


BEFORE FILING YOUR APPLICATION:

1.      Consult with your academic advisor/program coordinator regarding
completion of degree requirements and your graduation plans.

2.      Review your Degree Works audit to verify the accuracy of your
degree program, major(s), and minor(s) and to ensure you will complete all
requirements by the term you select for graduation. Email
degreeworks at plattsburgh.edu to resolve discrepancies prior to accessing the
online graduation application.

3.      Pay close attention to the DEGREE header. The degree listed will be
the degree awarded. Some academic programs provide an option for a B.A. or
a B.S. In this case, you may submit a request to change your degree option
by emailing the Registrar’s Office.

4.      Number of Degrees = Number of Graduation Applications to submit.
Students graduating in combined undergraduate/graduate programs submit two
separate applications but simultaneously. One application for the
undergraduate degree and a second application for the graduate degree.
Submit both applications for the term that all graduate level requirements
will be completed, as both degrees are awarded simultaneously.


The “hometown” city, state, and country are listed on the Commencement
Website <https://www.plattsburgh.edu/plattslife/commencement/graduates.html>
for
all graduates. This information is copied from the most recent mailing
address you have on file with the university. If you want the published
hometown information to be different from what is in your record, please
email the Registrar’s Office as soon as possible.

If you apply too late in the semester, your name may not appear on the
Commencement Website.
