Are You Ready?
For Starters ...

And Next Up ... Check DegreeWorks
Wait - I need to be Eligible to Participate in the Commencement Ceremony?
- Commencement is the ceremony marking a student's successful degree completion. Graduation is the actual conferral of the degree.
To get specific:
- Participation in the Commencement ceremony does not constitute conferral of the degree. Similarly, inclusion of a student's name on such publications as the Commencement program does not confirm eligibility for the degree. Completion of a Baccalaureate Degree at Framingham State University requires that all students achieve a minimum 2.00 quality point average in their major requirements, including major-related course taken outside of the home department in fulfillment of major requirements as well as University requirements.
{And don't forget that minimum 32 course credit requirement!}
PLUS - all students participating in Commencement Ceremonies MUST attend the mandatory rehearsal on Thursday, May 23. See details below.
