Commencement
- Graduating students:
- If you are planning to finish a degree, you MUST notify the University or your degree will NOT be conferred! See instructions below. Detailed commencement information can be found on the University's Commencement website.
- Applying for graduation
- Apply online for graduation through AXESS; give clear instructions on how your name should appear on the diploma, etc.
- Note that AXESS checks your major and "field". Double-check your AXESS record to make sure it correctly shows your graduation intentions.
- If you miss the apply-to-graduate deadline, you must apply to receive your degree the next quarter.
- Make sure you've met all academic requirements! You must take all the courses listed on your Program Proposal (or your PhD Candidacy form), or else you must file a Revision. If you have any doubts, check your courses with your department's Student Services administrator.
- If you're planning to continue for another degree at Stanford, there are forms you must file before you graduate. See your department's Student Services administrator for information.
