Degree Postings and Mailings

The Associate Degree(s) CANNOT be posted to the student's record until after the end of the term during which it was earned. This usually occurs during the second or third week following the end of that term. It could take longer if the student took a class that ends beyond the end of the term, as all grades must be posted. It could also be delayed if the student has an "Incomplete" to clear, has submitted a grade change request, or is taken a class at another college.

The diplomas are mailed approximately two months after the end of a term. The approximately availability dates are as follows:

  • Summer: mid-October
  • Fall: late February
  • Spring: late July
