For Undergraduates: Because Spring grades must still be processed, diplomas will be available about four months after the end of the term. If you need proof of graduation before then, you can request this at Cal Student Central(link is external) in 120 Sproul Hall. Please go to CalCentral online now to record a diploma mailing address. If you do not supply an alternative address by the July deadline, the diploma will be mailed to your permanent home address.
For M.A./Ph.D.: Diplomas will be mailed to your permanent address approximately 4 months after graduation. Make sure you update CalCentral with your future address. If you need proof of graduation before then you can use the Certificate of Completion which will automatically be email to you from Graduate Division; please be aware of that Certificates are automatically generated by the grad div system and emailed to students as soon as all steps in the filing process have been completed AND all requirements have been met on the student’s Academic Progress Report (APR).
