Graduation

Congratulations on your upcoming graduation!

We want to ensure that your graduation and commencement experiences are as enjoyable as possible. The following information will assist you in completing the necessary steps toward graduation and commencement. If you have any questions, contact graduation@nic.edu.

Graduation

  • Program requirement questions should be sent to graduation@nic.edu.
  • Graduation application opens on March 15 for the Fall Semester and Summer Session and October 15 for the Spring Semester. The application closes on the last day of each semester.
  • All students must apply to graduate using MYNIC Self Service; however, Commencement attendance is optional.
  • Students should apply to graduate when they register for the semester in which all degree/certificate requirements will be met.
  • The process of reviewing all program requirements and awarding degrees begins once all final grades are submitted for the semester, taking approximately one week. Once awarding is complete, posted degrees and/or certificates will appear on transcripts. Diplomas are also ordered and will be mailed to the address on graduation applications. Within six weeks, you should receive your diploma(s).
  • Students who apply to graduate and who order a cap and gown may participate in the ceremonies even if they subsequently fail to meet graduation requirements.
