Graduation



Degrees are conferred by the university upon recommendation of the Faculty of the Arts and Sciences-Newark and the School of Criminal Justice. A student who completes degree requirements in October, January, or May can request a diploma in December, April, or July respectively. Degrees may be obtained at the Office of the Registrar.

Diplomas are withheld if a student has a hold against his or her record. It is the responsibility of each student to ensure that all the graduation requirements of the college, including certification of the major, have been fully met well before the expected date of graduation. For a personal academic degree audit evaluation, go to https://dnadvisor.rutgers.edu.

Student records are officially closed upon graduation. A graduate cannot improve his or her cumulative grade-point average by completing work or taking additional courses after the degree has been conferred. To participate in commencement ceremonies, a student must have successfully completed all degree requirements.

Inquiries concerning graduation may be directed to the Office of Academic Programs and Student Services, located in the Center for Law and Justice, Suite 572. All candidates for graduation must complete a diploma application form online at http://nwkstudents.rutgers.edu/Gradtracker/index.php according to the following deadlines:
