Preparing to Graduate
Degrees are not conferred until the end of the term and upon verification that all requirements have been met. Students are responsible for determining that they've met all graduation requirements and have no outstanding financial obligations to the College.
Students who meet all graduation requirements for any degree or certificate program must apply to graduate to receive their Eastern Florida State College degree, whether or not they plan to attend the commencement exercises.
EFSC traditionally holds two commencement ceremonies each year at the Melbourne Campus King Center, at the end of the fall and spring terms. Summer graduates are invited to walk in the fall ceremony.
Congratulations To Our Fall Candidates!

Diplomas will be mailed via the U.S. Postal Service to all graduates who meet requirements and do not have outstanding financial obligations.
Please note that diplomas are sent to all graduates at the address on file within 6-8 business weeks after the date of graduation (this timing does not include winter break so will be measured from Jan. 4, 2021 when the College reopens).
Be sure to keep your address current. To verify and/update your address is easy! Log in to myEFSC and View/Update Address under Personal Information.
You can view the December 17 Vitual Commencement Ceremony on our custom Fall 2020 graduation web page.
