The Graduate School has joined with their vendor, The Michael Sutter Company, to have diplomas mailed from the company directly to our graduates.
Previously, the Graduate School ordered diplomas from the company, then had them shipped back to Blacksburg for packaging and mailing. We are now able to provide faster service to our graduates. Students will receive an email notifying them that their diploma has been shipped, which will be within 2-3 business days from the time our order has been placed. In addition to this new service, graduates will receive a larger diploma (11x 14).
Note: BMES/BMVS diplomas are still ordered through the Office of the University Registrar and their normal time frame will remain at 4-6 weeks.
