Students who participate in the Commencement Ceremony will receive a commemorative diploma cover at the ceremony, which can be used to store their diploma.
Diploma covers are also available for pick-up after the ceremony from the Registrar's Office for students who earn their degree in the current semester but do not walk/participate in commencement.
Email graduation@appstate.edu after commencement to arrange pick up or have one sent by mail.
The diploma measures 8 ½" x 11" and the page layout is landscape.
