Action Items

Congratulations on your upcoming Commencement Weekend!

For the January 2025 degree candidates, please fill out the graduation portion of the ND Roll Call (August 22 - Sept. 3). This process will start you on the graduation list. The list will then go to your major departments and the advising dean's offices to add/delete students on the list.

Please remember to fill out your GradApp (January degree candidates begin the end of August) for important information, such as your diploma name, and hometown. In March, all students attending the May ceremonies will also verify your diploma ceremony, order guest tickets for the University Commencement Ceremony, and much more. The deadline for the majority of the items is March 21, 2025. 

As Commencement Weekend approaches, we encourage you to check your email regularly, as much of our communication to you will come in the form of emails.
