The release of Diplomas/CeCredentials is tied to eligibility requirements. Diplomas/CeCredentials will be ordered automatically after the official degree conferral date once you have:

  • An official graduation status
  • Provided a diploma name, mailing address, and phone number.  You will be assigned a task to provide your diploma information and we will communicate with you via email when the task is available for completion.  
  • Settled all University financial obligations and have no University holds

The date your diploma/CeCredential is automatically ordered depends on when you have fulfilled these requirements.

Anyone who has not provided the required diploma information and/or resolved the hold can do so by:

  1. Logging into the MyBU Student Portal 
  2. Navigate to: My Profile > Contact Info > Diploma Mailing Address.
  3. Edit or Add your diploma information including: Diploma Name, Diploma Address, and Diploma Phone number

If it is AFTER the final scheduled order date, please email diploma@bu.edu to request the release of their diploma/CeCredential.

All diplomas are mailed via USPS by our diploma vendor. Diploma production takes 10-15 business days. The estimated time of arrival is 1-2 weeks for domestic addresses, and 5-8 weeks for international addresses.

You will receive a confirmation email with tracking information once your diploma has shipped via USPS and when your CeCredential is available for download.
