Diploma Information

Degrees will be posted to the student's record 4-6 weeks after the end of the semester in which they complete degree requirements.

Diplomas are mailed approximately 6 weeks after degrees are noted on student transcripts. However, diplomas will not be sent if a student has an outstanding financial obligation to the University (parking tickets, overdue books, or unpaid tuition bills). Student diplomas will be mailed to the permanent address listed in the University system. For permanent address changes, students should update their address through the Registrar.

To check on the status of your diploma, go to https://www.testudo.umd.edu/ and click on "Graduation Application & Diploma Status". Contact the Diploma Office (301-314-8270) for questions regarding a diploma not received 12 weeks following the semester’s completion, or for a change of diploma mailing address.
