Graduation Services Changing Name to Degree Services

Beginning January 16, 2024, Graduation Services is changing its name to Degree Services. The work we do, and our contact information will not change. We will continue to:

  • Oversee degree applications.
  • Conduct final evaluations for undergraduate degree candidates.
  • Process exceptions for undergraduate degree audits.
  • Clear undergraduate degree candidates.
  • Confer degrees and award minors and certificates to all degree candidates.
  • Facilitate the distribution of print and digital diplomas.
  • Work with students and colleges on retroactive degrees.

We hope that in addition to providing more clarity to all our campus users, students, and their families about what Degree Services does, this will also better identify Degree Services’ role when students graduate from the University of Iowa.

Contacting Degree Services

Students should contact Degree Services using registrar-degree-applications@uiowa.edu or by calling 319-335-0228.

Staff and faculty should contact Degree Services using grad-analysis@uiowa.edu.

Website Updates

We are working with our colleagues in the Office of the Registrar and ITS to update our webpages and forms to reflect Degree Services. To help us with this transition, we ask that you review your webpages and make this same name change.

Commencement Questions

Questions related to commencement ceremonies should continue to be referred to the Commencement Team (UI-commencement@uiowa.edu) and the commencement website that includes a graduation checklist for the degree candidates and valuable information on ceremonies, apparel, RSVP, and guest information.
