Applying for Graduation

Students can apply for graduation online through their MyMoreheadState account by selecting Self-Service/Graduation Overview. Students completing their requirements in the fall or winter terms will participate in the December commencement ceremony. Students completing their requirements in the spring or summer terms will participate in the May commencement ceremony.  Detailed instructions are available at www.moreheadstate.edu/graduation.

Applications for spring and summer terms must be completed by March 15 and applications for fall and winter terms must be completed by October 15, in order to avoid a late fee, reserve your seat at commencement, and have your name printed in the commencement program. Students will receive an email in their MSU account within 72 business hours.

Undergraduate students completing two bachelor's degrees simultaneously will need to apply twice (one for each printed diploma). See Completion of Two Bachelor's Degrees Simultaneously for additional information. 

Commencement is observed two times during the academic year. Ceremonies are held at the end of the fall and spring terms.
