Degrees are conferred and diplomas are presented at the commencement convocations of the colleges each spring. Any candidate who is unable to attend the Camden commencement convocation is asked to write to the registrar requesting that the degree be conferred in absentia. Since arrangements for the commencement convocations are complex and well advanced by April 1, it is appreciated if such requests are placed before that date. Candidates whose attendance is prevented by some last-minute emergency are asked to communicate with the registrar within 24 hours of commencement. In all cases, the candidate should indicate the address to which the diploma may be sent when it is mailed during the months of June and July.
