Commencement Ceremonies

Associate, bachelor’s and master’s students are eligible to participate in commencement if they are within two courses of completing their degree programs and in good financial standing. Students interested in participating in a commencement ceremony must register online. Students are responsible to purchase their own regalia through the university's approved vendor.

Students should visit commencement.strayer.edu to register for commencement, note their confirmation number and order their cap and gown. 

To register for commencement and learn more about commencement dates, locations and important deadlines, please visit commencement.strayer.edu. 

Diplomas are not provided at commencement. The Final Academic Requirements Evaluation will be completed in a student’s final term of enrollment, during the term in which he or she completes the capstone course. The $150 Final Academic Requirements Evaluation Fee will be applied to the student’s account when he or she registers for his or her capstone course.
