Graduation Application Deadline

Spring 2026 graduates must submit a CNS Graduation Application by the March 24th deadline. The online application generally opens a few weeks after the semester starts. Commencement ceremonies happen once a year, in May for graduates and candidates of the full academic year (past fall, current spring and future summer). Participation in the graduation ceremony ("walking") is optional. Eligible students may apply to walk by the March 24th deadline.

Students should be in contact with their assigned academic advisor about their graduation plans. Find your assigned advisor here.
