Program Proof December 2026 Commencement Ceremony

You are reviewing the program proof to ensure your name is listed. We are no longer making name edits (such as adding middle names). Contact us only if your name is missing entirely or misspelled. Once you have reviewed your name, return to Step 4, answer the remaining questions, and submit the form before closing it. You will immediately receive a confirmation email to your Memphis.edu account upon successful submission. If you do not receive a confirmation email, your form was NOT submitted, and you will need to complete it successfully before the deadline.

 

Commencement Program

  • The Commencement Program is a public document. Therefore, it lists all students/graduates who are approved degree seeking students and approved graduate and undergraduate certificate programs (some names may be unlisted who contacted us on or after the Step 4 deadline).
  • If a student/graduate wants name removed an electronic communication request must be sent to commencement@memphis.edu by the Step 4 deadline. Otherwise, the name will list automatically. 
  • After the programs are approved, printed and published on our University Libraries or other University of Memphis website, no part of it will be altered in any way.
