Degrees are conferred and diplomas are presented at the
commencement convocations of the colleges each spring. Any candidate
who is unable to attend the Rutgers University-Camden commencement convocation is asked to
complete an In Absentia Form available at https://advising.camden.rutgers.edu/advising/seniors/#_Applying_for_Graduation.
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.
