Diplomas + Certificates
Beginning with spring 2020 graduates, diplomas and certificates will be mailed two to four weeks after completion of the term/graduation. All students who graduate will be issued an electronic diploma/certificate and mailed a paper diploma/certificate. There is no order form or fee for the initial diploma or certificate. Students expecting to graduate should continue to check their Bucks student email account for emails from the Registrar and Parchment regarding graduation and diplomas/certificates.
