You may have a hold or be ineligible to be in that course (missing pre-requisite, time-conflict, etc).

  • If you have a hold, contact the office that placed the hold.

Please see Graduation Application & Deadlines.

DegreeWorks is a degree audit platform used by Plymouth State. It provides you with a real-time view of your progress to degree completion.  Please check it often.

After final grades have been posted* and we have confirmed all degree requirements have been met, your diploma will be mailed to the address you provided on your graduation application approximately 4-6 weeks after the end of the semester.

*Please note that grades are due from instructors the Thursday after the semester has ended.  Once all have been received, we can begin to award degrees and order diplomas.

Some common reasons are holds on your account, you did not complete your requirements (ie missing credits, incomplete grades, GPA too low), and/or you changed your address after you filed your graduation application

Details are communicated to you by PSU email.  If you still have questions after you’ve checked your email please contact psu-degreeinfo@plymouth.edu.

There is a distinction between having your degree awarded and walking in the Commencement Ceremony.

  • The degree is awarded and the student receives a diploma only after the Registrar’s office has certified successful completion of all degree and institutional requirements.
  • Walking in the commencement ceremony is the act of honoring and celebrating academic achievement.

For the information regarding the ceremony, please visit the page on commencement.
