Hampton University - Office of the Registrar

Accumulating credits or attending school for a certain period of time does not automatically entitle you to a diploma. To graduate you must satisfy all the University, college, and major requirements that were in effect at the time of your most recent admission, or readmission, as a degree candidate to the University.

It is your responsibility to notify the University of your intent to graduate. This should be done by completing an "Application for Graduation" by the published deadline, the spring semester prior to the semester of intended graduation.

Candidates for Graduation

Please check your name, major(s), concentration, and minor for accuracy. If you do not see your name, then the Office of the Registrar has not received your application for graduation for this term. If you need to make any changes to your major, concentration, and minor, please fill out the Change of Minor form and obtain the necessary signatures.

No changes can be made to a major, concentration, or minor the semester you intend to graduate without the approval of the Office of the Provost.

If your name does not appear on this list and you wish to be a candidate for May 2011 or August 2011 graduation, please contact your advisor immediately.
