IMPORTANT NOTE:  Due to ongoing problems with damage and non-deliveries, we are not able to mail diplomas to addresses in the immediate surrounding area of the University of Memphis (i.e. Brister, Highland, Mynders, Southern, Patterson).  Students residing in this area must either pick up their diplomas from the Commencement Office or contact the office to provide an alternative mailing address.

Pick Ups: Students may pick up their diploma, if they prefer. However, you must email commencement@memphis.edu stating that you want to pick it up. Provide full name, college, phone number and or email address.
