Apply for Graduation

You must fill out a graduation application to have a degree conferred (awarded), even if you do not plan to attend a commencement ceremony. Applying for graduation (to earn a degree) is different from applying to attend a commencement ceremony. Visit Apply for Graduation for instructions and deadlines. 

 



Commencement Ceremonyphoto of a graduate and president edwards at commencement

Commencement ceremonies are held each spring and fall to celebrate students earning their degree. It is a chance for family, friends, faculty, and staff to honor our graduates and their accomplishments. While commencement is not a requirement, we hope you will attend this special event in your honor.



Alumni Association

The Wright State Alumni Association truly provides an incredible opportunity for graduates! With automatic membership upon graduation, you can effortlessly tap into a vast network of over 120,000 alumni. This is a great way to build professional connections, mentor current students, and enjoy exclusive discounts and events. Staying connected enriches your experience and helps support future alumni. It’s a fantastic way to give back to the university community while reaping the benefits yourself!
