ยป Diploma Information

Degrees are awarded four times a year: at the end of January, May, August, and December. You must have a degree conferral application on file for the term in which you intend to complete your degree requirements. The name you enter on the application is what will appear on your diploma. Pending verification that you have no holds on your account, a diploma will be mailed to you from Parchment.  A complimentary copy of your transcript will be mailed separately from Chapman. If you have any holds on your account, please contact the office that placed the hold.

If your address changed from the one you entered on your conferral application, please update it on your Parchment account and email your new address to conferral@chapman.edu. Students have up to six months to report a lost or damaged diploma without having to pay the duplicate diploma fee.

Ordering a Notarized Diploma

Copies of diplomas cannot be notarized. If you need a duplicate diploma, please order a physical copy in addition to submitting the Notary Request Form.
