STRAYER UNIVERSITY 2025 COMMENCEMENT

Eligibility Requirements

Associate, bachelor's, master's and JWMI graduates, and students who are within two courses of degree completion at the time of the ceremony, are eligible to participate in a commencement ceremony.

Additional Information

• Diplomas are NOT handed out at ceremonies and participating in a ceremony is optional.
• Only those registered for a ceremony by the deadline date noted will be able to participate in the ceremony.
• Eligible graduates may participate in a future ceremony if desired since there isn't a time limit for when graduates participate.
• Eligible graduates may also participate in both a virtual AND in-person ceremony if they are registered for each ceremony separately.

Commencement ceremonies may be cancelled at any time due to unforeseen circumstances and events. In the event of a cancellation, Strayer University will update graduates on options as soon as the information is available. Since Strayer University is not able to reimburse travel funds, we encourage commencement participants to consider refundable travel options whenever possible to provide the most flexible experience.

If you have specific questions about commencement or your eligibility to participate in a ceremony, please contact our commencement team or visit the FAQs section.
