Getting Your Diploma
Diplomas will be mailed out roughly 8-12 weeks after grades have been posted to students who have officially graduated, with no outstanding financial obligations due to the university. However, your degree is recorded on your transcript 6 weeks after commencement.
Graduates will receive an email notification via their FIU email account when their diploma has been mailed. Diplomas are mailed to the student's home address as recorded in Panthersoft which can be viewed and updated from MyFIU. Invalid or incorrect addresses will delay delivery. Students will be notified by email if their diploma was returned to the university.
If you have not received your diploma within a reasonable time, please contact the Office of the Registrar. You may also reorder your diploma for a small fee. Visit Onestop for more details on your diploma and the official graduation process.
