Congratulations on nearing the end of your degree!

As you register for your final semester of classes, you will need to apply to graduate. You must do this to add your name to the pending degree list and have your diploma officially conferred.  

Graduation ceremonies (i.e., commencement) are a fun but optional ceremony to celebrate your achievements with other peers. All our graduating students are welcome to participate!  

You can find details about campus-wide and college ceremonies here: https://commencement.illinois.edu/
