Ready to Graduate?
Gateway awards degrees, diplomas and certificates each semester. Applications are required for each degree and diploma you are earning. Certificates are awarded at the end of each semester and do not require an application. Once you submit your application for your degree, the Records Office staff will review your graduation application. Degree awards and denials are finalized within 30 days after the end of the term. Notifications will be sent to your email address. Printed degrees, diplomas and certificates will be mailed to your mailing address on file within 10-12 weeks from the end of the semester.
