Diploma Information
If you did not attend your May 2023 diploma ceremony, and you did not enter this information into the GradApp with your address, then please contact Amy Jennings at 574-631-5183 or Jennings.30@nd.edu to let her know where you would like your diploma mailed. If you missed your diploma ceremony, but are on campus, you may pick-up your diploma at 300 Grace Hall.
Please note that the unofficial Commencement Program, provided during Commencement weekend, is based on previous semester grades for printing deadlines; therefore, some Latin Honors will be incorrect. An Official Commencement Program is produced in August and will be sent to the address we have on file for you. The diplomas are printed in-house and are reprinted prior to commencement weekend for Latin Honor adjustments.
Latin Honors for Undergraduate Students
In the undergraduate colleges or schools, a degree will be granted with highest honors (summa cum laude) if the student’s grade point average ranks among the top 5.000 percent of those students graduating from the student’s college or school; for a student whose grade point average ranks among the top 15.000 percent of the student’s college or school, a degree will be granted with high honors (magna cum laude); for a student whose grade point average ranks among the top 30.000 percent of the student’s college or school, a degree will be granted with honors (cum laude). A student who meets the requirements of more than one category of honors will be awarded only the highest honor for which that student qualifies. View the Latin Honors for the current semester.
Earning a Notre Dame diploma is a great honor not only to the holder, but also to the wider University community. Congratulations on your accomplishment! All students who have met their current obligations to the institution and have no account holds are eligible to receive their diploma at Commencement.
