Start Here - First Step

Spring 2025 Graduates

• Apply for Graduation by Saturday, February 15th, 2025 - If you are planning to graduate this semester, you must follow the application process outlined on the University Ceremonies website. After the initial graduation application deadline there is a late fee, so be sure to apply on time! Plus, you must apply by the deadline in order for your name to be printed in any graduation programs. 

  • Undergraduate Students: double check your DARS to make sure it shows you are on track to graduate. 

  • Graduate Students: double check your iPOS to make sure it shows you are on track to graduate.

• Once you have applied to graduate, you should receive emails from ASU and the College of Global Futures with important updates and information that will also be posted on this site.

• There will be an additional step you will need to take to RSVP for graduation ceremonies. More information detailing the process will be coming soon. 

Can I participate in a graduation ceremony if I am completing my degree next semester? 

• Bachelor's and Master's Students - If you finish your requirements in the summer, you can opt to participate in either the May (the semester before you finish) or December's ceremony (after you finish). We encourage you to participate in December, but there may be special circumstances for you wanting to participate in May.

• Doctoral Students - You can only participate in a graduation in the semester that you fully complete your requirements. If you are finishing your requirements in the summer, you can participate in the following December ceremonies.
