Diplomas
receiving your degree
degree conferral
The Registrar’s Office determines a student’s conferral date based on the date associated with the final item that fulfills their degree requirements — such as a transcript, grade change, or other required documentation.
Prompt resolution of all outstanding University obligations — including but not limited to incomplete grades, substitutions or waivers, high school verification documentation, and financial holds — is necessary to avoid delays in diploma processing.
diplomas
Once your degree is conferred you may order your diploma. The diploma order form is located in BRUIN. Once your diploma is ordered, a digital copy of the diploma will be emailed to you within 24-48 hours. The paper diploma can be expected within 45 business days. A financial hold on your account may delay the diploma order from being processed.
digital diplomas available
Since 2017, Bellevue University has offered digital diplomas as part of the diploma ordering process. Digital diplomas are an easy, secure way to share your achievement with family, friends, or potential employers on social platforms such as LinkedIn.
Once your degree is conferred and the diploma order has been placed, you’ll automatically receive a digital diploma. You’ll still receive a printed diploma by mail. Every digital diploma provided by Parchment includes security features to verify it as an official credential of Business University and cannot be pirated.
If you are a student with a conferral date prior to 2017 and would like a digital diploma, please contact the Registrar’s Office at sssstudentrecordsteam@bellevue.edu. Requests will be handled on a case-by-case basis.
check your advisement report for completion
If you haven’t received your conferral email, check your Academic Progress report in BRUIN. If it shows your degree as 100% complete, you may fill out the Diploma Order form located in BRUIN. If your report does not indicate completion but you believe it should, contact your Student Coach.
