Diplomas are not handed out at the spring commencement ceremony. You will receive a diploma cover upon crossing the stage at the commencement ceremony.

It takes approximately 30 days to process all graduation applications after the end of the semester.

Once this process is complete, graduates will receive an email from Parchment with a link to access their electronic diploma. Orders for replacement diplomas before the original has been issued will be cancelled. Graduates will log in or set up an account with Parchment within 72 hours and verify their mailing address. After 72 hours, graduates can still access the electronic diploma but will not be able to update the mailing address. Paper diplomas will be mailed to the address on file within 15 business days; please allow at least three weeks from the date of the email to receive the paper diploma.

Make certain that your mailing address is accurate in the Student Information System in myBrightpoint and check your student email account for important information regarding when diplomas are available. If you need official verification of your graduation, you should request your official transcript 3-4 weeks after your graduation date.

Your first diploma will be at no cost to you. If you do not receive your diploma and it is not returned to the college, it is your responsibility to request a replacement. Replacement diplomas cost $12 and can be ordered by the graduate at www.parchment.com.

All graduation honors reflect all coursework attempted at Brightpoint. This includes courses that may not be used in satisfying specific graduation requirements.
