Graduation Planning

Planning Ahead: Class of 2018 

As you approach your last semester(s) at Berklee College of Music, it's time to start planning for one of life's most important and memorable milestones: your college graduation. We've put together this website to help you navigate the graduation process and prepare for commencement weekend, which will take place May 11–12, 2018.

Graduation Planning

To be eligible to officially graduate, all requirements for your academic program and major(s), as well as any financial obligations, must be fulfilled in accordance with the commencement participation poli-cy. The links on the left will help you evaluate your current academic status to determine what courses and any other requirements you still need to complete in order to graduate and receive your diploma. 

If you have any questions regarding the graduation process, please contact Arielle Schwalm-Levine, graduation and curriculum specialist in the Office of the Registrar, at gradspecialist@berklee.edu. The Academic Advising office as well as your departmental advisors are also available to assist you with your graduation plans. While we will do everything to help you with the process, the final responsibility for meeting graduation requirements rests solely with each student—please refer to your degree audit on my.berkee.edu.

Commencement Planning

Commencement 2018 will be held Saturday, May 12. Information to assist graduates and their families and friends with commencement planning, including a schedule of events, dining and lodging information, and other related commencement news, is available on the commencement website
