NOTE: Students should not be charged for their diploma if it is their first time receiving it. However, students should be aware that any additional or multiple copy requests will be an additional fee.
FOR INTERNATIONAL STUDENT (BYU-I)
For international students, it may take longer than 3-6 months due to other contributing factors.

Applying to graduate or to receive a certificate, does not mean the student has met all the needed requirements.

FOR STUDENTS CONCERNED ABOUT DELAYS IN RECEIVING THEIR CERTIFICATE OR DIPLOMA, PLEASE REFER TO THE BELOW INFORMATION:
SEARCH EMAILS:
For students who are inquiring if their physical certificate/diploma is on the way, please have them first check their BYU-Idaho email account.
Students receive emails throughout the entire application process: through the review of their application, for the award of the certificate/diploma, when their certificate/diploma is put in the mail, and with access to their eCertificate, etc.
Oftentimes those emails get lost with the others a student may have, so if they can check for those emails (from graduation@byui.edu or Michael Sutter- a third-party diploma partner) they often will find what they are looking for.
CERTIFICATES/DIPLOMAS AWARDED ONCE A SEMESTER:
BYU-Idaho no longer retroactively awards degrees or certificates. This means that certificates/diplomas will not be awarded immediately. If a student applies for a certificate/diploma that they completed three semesters ago, they will need to be aware that they will be awarded the certificate/diploma for that current semester. BYU-Idaho will wait and award certificates/diplomas with the rest of the qualifying applicants for that semester.
OTHER:
If a student knows that they have applied for a certificate/diploma and they haven’t received any email notifications about it within two weeks after applying, you can refer them to BYU-Idaho at graduation@byui.edu.
