The following policy has been approved and will enable Office of the Registrar staff to certify and order diplomas, with appropriate honors, as quickly as possible for August graduates.
Summer 2020
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and restrictions on events and public gatherings, Summer graduation ceremonies will be postponed.
Diplomas for all Professional, Doctoral, Master’s and Bachelor’s students will be mailed upon verification of completion of all degree requirements in August. These diplomas will be mailed to the address the degree candidate provided on their application for graduation (normal mailing costs are being waived). Degree Candidates can verify that address in Howdy and notify the Office of the Registrar of any changes or corrections by contacting
graduation@tamu.edu.
Grades for all degree candidates are due at
12 p.m. on Thursday, August 6, 2020. The final degree evaluation process will be conducted
that evening and the Graduation clearance checks for undergraduate students will be available
after 10 p.m. that night. This information may be accessed at
https://howdy.tamu.edu on the “My Record” tab. Graduate degree candidates who have questions about their status may contact the Office of Graduate and Professional Studies on or after
Friday, August 7, 2020 by calling 979-845-3631.
Degree Candidates not clearing for graduation on
August 6 will have until 5 p.m. the first Friday of the following semester (
August 21, 2020) to clear all degree requirements. Candidates not cleared by this date must reapply for graduation for a future term and pay the diploma fee again.
