Earl Warren College Commencement

Earl Warren College's 2022 Commencement Ceremony was held on Sunday, June 12 at 6:30-8:15pm (PDT).  

Congratulations Class of 2022!

 

Applying for Graduation

Graduation is when a student has completed all requirements and their degree has been officially posted to their academic record. Students must file a Degree and Diploma Application (DDA) to initiate this process at http://degree.ucsd.edu.

Commencement is the annual ceremony in which any student with senior standing (135 units) may choose to participate. Participation does not constitute official graduation from the University.  Learn more at commencement.ucsd.edu.

Eligibility Criteria for Commencement

Registration will open in late March 2022. Graduates may participate during only one Commencement year but are permitted and encouraged to attend both All Campus Commencement and their college, graduate school, or graduate division ceremonies.

Registration for All Campus Commencement and undergraduate college commencements is open to eligible undergraduate students with 135 units by the end of winter 2022 who are completing their degree in fall 2021, winter 2022, spring 2022, summer 2022 or fall 2022.
