ACADEMIC POLICIES
Regalia
Graduates must wear the designated Del Mar College academic regalia. You need to purchase regalia for graduation. Information on how to purchase regalia will be provided to you at the time of application for graduation.
Diplomas
Diplomas are mailed to you approximately eight weeks after the semester ends. The only honors posted on diplomas may be: Cum Laude, Magna Cum Laude, Summa Cum Laude, Phi Theta Kappa, Sigma Alpha Pi and Alpha Beta Gamma.
Commencement
Graduation is held three times per year: May, August and December. If you are currently enrolled in your last semester of classes, you may apply for graduation and participate in the commencement ceremonies. Participation in the ceremonies and/or inclusion in the commencement program does not constitute evidence of completion of program or honors requirements. Only after verification of completion of all graduation requirements will a student be awarded a certificate or degree.
Summary
Your college experience can influence all other aspects of your life. Manage it carefully for best results.
