  • Students complete an application for graduation in the semester in which they will complete all requirements for graduation.
  • If a student is receiving a degree from JHSON, an application must be completed for the degree.  If the JHSON student has additionally completed the requirements for the NECO certificate during the same term as the degree is completed, the student cannot complete a graduation application for the NECO certificate.  The JHSON Records Office will manually put in the graduation application for the certificate.
  • Dual degree students when degrees are earned from two different JHU schools require a graduation application for each school.
  • JHSON degree students who have completed a certificate at another JHU school must complete an application for that certificate at the school in which they will receive the certificate.
  • DNP/PhD students only complete one application for graduation.
