After You Apply

Note: The Office of the Registrar does not email or call regarding your graduation audit, including any deficiencies or unmet requirements. If you have questions about these topics, contact your academic advisor.

Bachelor's degree candidates: You must schedule a time to review your graduation requirement audit with a representative from your college's academic advising office. 

Note: The link below will not display your personal graduation information until you've applied to graduate.

View your personal graduation information by using your mySFA credentials to log in.

You will need to review the information we have on file for your:

• graduation date*
• preference on participating in your commencement ceremony
• name to be printed on your diploma
• mailing address to receive your diploma
• and degree level, program and major.

*The official conferral date of degrees. Your graduation date and commencement ceremony date may differ.

Review your personal graduation information carefully for spelling and accuracy. Submit changes to graduation@sfasu.edu with your name and campus ID number.

All graduation candidates will be asked to confirm their graduation information as the Office of the Registrar begins final preparations for the upcoming graduation.

Approximately one month into your final semester, you'll receive an email from graduation@sfasu.edu and graduation information will appear on the academics page in mySFA.

Within the "Confirm Graduation Details" link, you can:

• confirm attendance preference
• reserve guest tickets for commencement
• view your preliminary Latin Honors, if earned, to be announced at commencement
• ensure correct spelling of your name to be printed on your diploma
• include any required diacritics (ñ, é, ü) or other special characters in your diploma name
• and verify your diploma mailing address.
  • Diploma addresses should be valid six to eight weeks after the commencement ceremony.

All graduating students are encouraged to upload a graduation photo and message. This feature is optional, and entries will be displayed during the pre-ceremony slideshow.

• Photo submissions can only be of the graduation candidate, without anyone else in the picture.
• Photos don't need to be a "formal" graduation picture taken by a professional photographer.

When the link becomes available, pay close attention to the guidelines and criteria to ensure your photo and message are displayed!

Important: The Confirm Graduation Details form is open for a limited amount of time. Once closed, it cannot be reopened. Visit the Deadlines page for more information on when this form will be available.

Pay your graduation fee

Required from all students when they become candidates for graduation, this is an administrative cost for the degree audit process in order to confer degrees, including the printing and mailing of diplomas and other related expenses.

Fee details

When you apply for graduation, the graduation fee will be added to your mySFA eBill during the term in which you intend to graduate. It can be paid online or by visiting the Student Business Services on the second floor of the Austin Building.

Important note: This fee is nonrefundable. If you fail to meet your degree requirements, you must reapply for graduation and pay the fee again.
