If we happen to not fulfill our last requirement and change our graduation term, when do we expect to be given a registration date? Immediately, a business day or two? Thanks.

Camille Johnson

Hi Ace! I was told that the enrollment appointment should update the next day after changing your grad term. If this isn't the case for you or if you need more information, you might want to reach out to the Registrar at [email protected].

Hi, my graduation term was Spring 2024, but I had to switched it to Summer 2024. I was told that I had to pay a $10 fee if I changed the term. Where do I pay this fee? or is there no fee?

Lori Arthur

Hi AA! I would recommend reaching out to the Graduation Unit for assistance at [email protected].

Bryana Rosales

If I wanted to change my graduation term from Spring 2025 to Fall 2024, how would I do so?

Lori Arthur

Hi Bryana! Please contact the Graduation Unit for assistance at [email protected].

Emilio Basurto

I already did my graduation ceremony, I just need to pass my PUBH 495 class for my BS. I do not want to redo the commecment ceremony

Camille Johnson

Hi Emilio! The commencement ceremony is optional, so you do not need to participate if you don't want to.

ZD

So, once I complete the steps above successfully, do I still need to contact the Graduation Unit or no?

Camille Johnson

Hi ZD! If you changed your graduation term by following the above steps, you're good to go. You only need to contact the Graduation Unit if you're unable to change your term through this process or if you need additional assistance.

My expected graduation term is listed as Spring 2025 on the CSUF portal however, I expect to complete all my required coursework by the end of this semester. Is there anyway I change this to Fall 2024?

Camille Johnson

Hi Jonathan!

If you're an UNDERGRADUATE student, please reach out to the Graduation Unit at [email protected]. They'll send you the required paperwork and instructions to move up your graduation term.

If you're a GRADUATE student, please contact the Office of Graduate Studies at [email protected] to get in touch with an evaluator.

I have recently changed my graduation date to Spring of 2025, as I am still doing work for my internship. Is there a fee that I have to pay or is there any paperwork required to push back my grad date?

Camille Johnson

Hi Xavier! If you move your graduate date to a later date, you do not need to submit additional paperwork or pay the graduation fee again.

Jose Gonzalez

I have my graduation date for Spring 2025, but I have one more core class I need to complete in the summer, can I move my graduation date to Summer 2025? My application is still under review so I can't do it myself in the student portal. What should I do?

Camille Johnson

Hi Jose! You might want to reach out to your advisor for assistance. https://www.fullerton.edu/academic-advising/find-my-advisor/

Marisela Gaxiola

My degree was already conferred January 2024 and I already received my diploma through the mail. I will be attending a study abroad program to Puerto Rico this Summer 2025 and have been asked to try and change my graduation date so that the funds for the trip could cover me. Is it possible to change my graduation date even though my degree was already conferred?

Camille Johnson

Hi Marisela! I'm not sure that's possible, but you may want to check with the Registrar's Graduation Unit to be sure. They can be reached at [email protected]. Please provide your CWID when you email them.
