What do I do after graduation?
Start thinking about your future now. For career advice or planning, we recommend contacting the FSU Career Center or one of the Career Liaisons assigned to the College of Arts and Sciences to help start the process now.
I completed a double major. Why is only one listed on my diploma?
The FSU diploma lists a student’s degree program. Undergraduate students who complete a double major will have the degree name associated with their primary major listed on their diploma. Note that major names are not listed on the diploma but are listed on a student’s transcript.
How do I verify for employers, grad school, etc. that I completed my degree?
A student’s official FSU transcript is the university’s verified record of academic progress and degree completion. Degrees typically “post” (are listed as complete on a transcript) approximately four weeks after the end of a semester. Degree posting date for the current semester can be found on the Registrar’s graduation important dates page.
I have enough credit to graduate early, but I don’t want to – what are my options?
The university and College of Arts and Sciences expectation for students is that they graduate within four years for incoming first year students or two years for incoming upper division/AA transfer students.
If you are on track to complete your graduation requirements before this period ends, there are a variety of programs and opportunities available to you on campus to enrich your remaining time. A good resource to contact is the Graduation Planning & Strategies office.
I missed the deadline to apply for graduation online. What do I do?
If you intended to graduate this semester and you missed the deadline to apply for graduation online, you must submit a request to be added late to the current semester’s graduation list.
