Diploma Distribution
Due to COVID-19, older diplomas are not currently available for pickup on campus as we work to keep students and staff safe.
For Fall 2019, Winter 2020, Spring 2020, and Summer 2020 Classes
Your diploma is almost ready and you will be receiving additional information from the Office of the Registrar shortly.
In the meantime, make sure your preferred email and mailing address is up to date on CUNYfirst. To update your e-mail and mailing address, go to your CUNYfirst Student Center. In the personal information section, select the information you would like to update. Also look out for new digital diploma options.
Digital Diplomas
This year, we're working with Parchment to offer digital diplomas for the first time. After downloading, you can share it again and again—at no cost to you. Your diploma will be sent to the e-mail address on file, so make sure your preferred e-mail address is up to date on CUNYfirst. To set a preferred e-mail address, go to your CUNYfirst Student Center, select "emails" in the drop-down list located under the personal information section, and add/set your preferred e-mail address.
- Easily share your digital diploma with employers with a secure link.
- Download the file as an image or PDF to share with friends and family.
- Many countries recognize digital diplomas, and yours can serve as an alternative to the apostille.
For Graduates of Earlier Classes
- Mailing arrangements can be made with the Request for Mailing a Diploma (pdf).
- A request for a duplicate diploma (for diplomas older than one year, which have been discarded according to CUNY regulations) can be made with the Request for Duplicate Diploma (pdf).
Note that as we continue to work remotely, your diploma may not be mailed immediately. We average a trip to campus once every two to three weeks, at which time all requests are processed and mailed.
Students who are graduating at the end of the semester and need documentation that their degree will be conferred as proof for a job offer, higher education acceptance, internship, etc., may request a Statement of Graduation using the Registrar Request Form.
