Graduation application
All students must submit a graduation application to receive a degree, certificate of achievement, or career certificate.
The application for graduation can be found on the My Services student portal under Academic Profile and must be submitted online. Deadlines to file a graduation application are as follows:
Fall quarter – Nov. 1
Winter quarter – Feb. 1
Spring quarter – April 1
Summer quarter – July 1
At MCC, degrees and certificates are awarded at the end of each quarter and denote the completion of a program of study. Associate degrees, certificates of achievement, and career certificates are mailed approximately four to six weeks after the end of each quarter to qualifying students.
The MCC Graduation Commencement ceremony is held annually to recognize students who have graduated or will graduate during the current academic year (Summer, Fall, Winter, and Spring quarters).
Career certificate recipients are not eligible to participate in the annual commencement ceremony.
