Diplomas

Undergraduate diplomas display the student’s legal name, degree, major or area, and honors (if applicable). Minors and second majors or areas are not shown on the diploma but are listed on the official transcript.

Graduate diplomas display the student’s legal name, degree, and program of study.

Students may indicate how they want their name printed on their diploma when they apply for graduation. The first and last name on the diploma must be the legal name listed in MSU’s database. Middle names are optional on the diploma, and a middle initial may be used instead of a full middle name. If a name change is required, please submit the proper documentation before submitting your graduation application to registrar@moreheadstate.edu.

Once degrees are conferred, the students will receive notification to their MSU email accounts. Diplomas will be mailed to the address provided on the degree application between four to six weeks after degree conferral. Students will receive an email notification once their diploma has shipped.
