  2. After you file for graduation, a $45 graduation filing fee will be applied to your student account.
  3. Contact your major and minor departments to initiate a graduation check form, which will be completed by the department and sent to the graduation evaluations office for further review.

Graduation Application Updates

Your graduation application is good for three quarters after the term in which you filed for graduation. (Example: graduation term is Spring 2009 you may request an update of your graduation term to Winter 2010). After that time has passed, you will be required to submit a new application for graduation and pay the filing fee again.

Requests to update your graduation term must be sent from your Horizon e-mail account to the Office of the Registrar at reg@csueastbay.edu.

Remove FERPA Block if Applicable

If you have requested a FERPA block be placed on your record to prevent disclosure of your directory information, your name will not be printed in the commencement program unless you request the block be removed. For more information, please contact the Office of the Registrar at reg@csueastbay.edu.
