Graduation Policy

A degree application must be submitted to the Registrar's Office prior to the awarding of a degree from the College of Saint Benedict or Saint John's University.
An email is sent spring semester to all CSB/SJU Juniors inviting them to complete a degree application.
A degree application allows students the privilege to participate in the May commencement ceremony.
Emails are sent to students three times during their senior year, September, February, and April, to encourage them to check their progress towards graduation in Degree Works.
Students may participate in the May commencement ceremony if they are within 8 credits of completing all degree requirements.
Upon successful completion of all degree requirements, a diploma and transcripts are sent to all graduates at their permanent address.
Students who leave CSB/SJU may transfer up to eight semester credits from another accredited institution of higher education to complete their degree requirements.
