Graduation Applications
In order to be eligible to walk in commencement, every student must do the following before the application deadline for the semester of intended graduation:
- Fill out the Intent to Graduate form. This can be found in the student's MyLipscomb portal under the Registrar's Office page.
- Order their cap and gown through Jostens. Instructions for ordering a cap and gown can also be found in the student's MyLipscomb portal.
Students must apply for graduation during the application window immediately prior to their intended graduation date. If a student is graduating over the summer, then they have the option to participate in either the May or December commencement ceremony or not participate in a ceremony at all.
Here are the application windows for each semester:
- Spring Graduation: August 1st - January 31st
- Fall Graduation: February 15th - September 15th
- Summer Graduation: October 1st - July 31st*
*If a summer graduate wishes to participate in the May ceremony, then the deadline to apply for graduation and order a cap and gown is January 31st. If a summer graduate wishes to participate in the December ceremony, then the deadline for application and to order a cap and gown is July 31st.
Order a Cap and Gown
Students will be able to order their cap and gown from Jostens during the following ordering windows depending on their intended ceremony of participation:
- December Commencement: July 15th - September 15th
- May Commencement: November 15th - January 31st
The cost of the cap and gown is included in the student's term fees so there is no out-of-pocket cost at the time of ordering.
