What's the Difference Between Graduation and Commencement?
Graduation
Graduation is the completion and awarding of your degree and mailing of your diploma. This is overseen by the Office of the Registrar. The Office of the Registrar can assist students with:
- Changing their graduation application term
- Instructions on how to submit their online graduation application
Graduation Application Fee
The graduation application fee is paid online or to the cashier's office. The fee
is used to process your graduation application, and processing, printing and mailing
of your diploma. The fee is not associated with commencement.
To contact the Office of the Registrar, email graduation@csub.edu.
Commencement
Commencement is the celebration of your academic achievement of earning a degree in higher education. The commencement ceremonies are overseen by the Commencement Office. The Commencement Office can assist students with:
- Ceremony questions
- Services provided at the ceremonies
- Cap and gown questions
- Recognition and cultural ceremonies
Commencement Fee
There is no fee to participate in commencement. Graduates are required to wear a cap
and gown to participate in the ceremony.

Online Graduation Application
