When are diplomas mailed? What happens after Commencement?
Following commencement and after all grades are posted, the colleges begin the task
of clearing students for graduation. This means the college reviews final grades
to determine that all degree requirements have been met and notifies the Registrar's
Office when the degree can be awarded. Once cleared by the college, the Registrar's
Office posts the degree to the transcript and orders the diploma from Paradigm Inc.
The diploma is printed and then mailed to the student at the address listed on the
graduation application. Students will receive an email to their UT student email address
once the diploma has been mailed. This clearing, posting and ordering of diplomas
is ongoing for about 45 days past commencement.
To verify that your degree has been awarded, graduates should view their unofficial transcript through the myUT Portal. Follow instructions for viewing unofficial transcripts online.
Honors
The actual honors awarded at the time a degree is posted is based on the final cumulative
GPA. The diploma will show the honors awarded with the degree. If honors changed
as a result of final grades received, the diploma is reordered. This may cause a delay
in the receipt of the diploma.
