Diplomas

Diplomas will be mailed to graduates approximately eight weeks after final grades have been processed by the University Student Records and after degree requirements have been evaluated by the academic colleges. The diploma will then be sent to the address provided in the degree application. For any address changes, please email diplomas@nmsu.edu.
