Spring or Summer Graduates - Read This!
For those of you who will graduate this spring or summer, congratulations -you should be proud of your accomplishment!
All graduates must complete a graduation application. Click on this link to get to the application: https://www.stthomas.edu/business/degrees/graduationapplication/
Why do I need to submit a graduation application?
Your commencement coordinator collects multiple types of useful information and data from your application, including the following:
1) How do you want your name spelled on your diploma and in the commencement program? (Note: Even if you do not participate in the commencement ceremony, your name will still be printed in the program.)
2) Are you participating in the commencement ceremony?
- What size cap and gown do you need?
- How do you want your name pronounced when you are introduced?
3) Do you want a letter sent to your mentor or supervisor from Dean Puto, acknowledging your accomplishment in completing your MBA?
What if I need to make a change after I have submitted my graduation application?
We do our best to accommodate our students. BUT, this graduation process involves a lot of details and planning. So please try to avoid changes or exceptions, especially at the last minute. However, if you do need to make a change, email Ms. Phairas at pfphairas@stthomas.edu.
