In Review: We are currently reviewing your academic record to see if you have met the requirements for graduation; we will send you the results of this review by letter through the mail.

Withdrawn: Your candidacy for graduation has been removed because you are lacking a substantial number of credits or require more than two semesters to fulfill your requirements for graduation.

Pending: You will be awarded your degree/certificate pending successful completion of your current registered courses.

Approved: You have met the requirements for your degree and you will be placed in Awarded status upon the upcoming graduation date (date listed here); you may request a letter to verify this status at the Registrar’s Office in room A-104.

Awarded: Your CUNYfirst record will convey that you have been awarded your degree/certificate; your transcript will reflect this information. An e-diploma will be sent to your email on record through Parchment Services 3 to 4 monhts after your graduation date.  A few weeks later, a physical diploma will be mailed to you.
