Graduation Day Pointers for Graduates

Greetings Graduates,

You have worked so hard and done so much during your time with Tiffin University, we are honored to be a part of your story.

Here are a few tips and tricks to get the most of your graduation day:

Let everyone you know that you are graduating. 

  • Let everyone know you are graduating. Check out our social media toolkit for some celebratory ways to do just that.
    • Try out our customized TU graduation filters with your Snapchat account.
    • Frame your face with our customized digital profile picture frames.
    • Download mobile wallpapers to your phone.
    • While Zooming with friends, family, in meetings and even in interviews, be sure to download a virtual Zoom background to show your Dragon Pride.
  • Share your graduation celebrations with us. Take photos of your at-home celebrations. Take videos. This is your day.
  • Get social. Use #TUgrad #TiffinUniversity in your celebratory social posts to be included in our social wall. Tag @tiffinu on Instagram and Facebook!
  • Tell your friends. A list of graduates will be published on TU’s website and social media.

Timeline of Degree Conferral & official documents being Mailed

Timeline of degree conferral & official documents being mailed

Spring 2026 graduates: degrees will be conferred by mid-May; diplomas and transcripts will be mailed out approximately 6 - 8 weeks after degree conferral (mid-June).  

Summer 2026 graduates: degrees will be conferred by mid-September and diplomas and transcripts will be mailed out approximately six to eight weeks after degree conferral.  

Fall 2025 graduates: you should already have your degree conferred and should have also received your diploma and transcript; if this hasn’t happened please contact the Registrar’s Office.  

Tiffin University only confers degrees at the end of each semester  

Tiffin University only prints diplomas in October, February and June. If you have outstanding items (exit counseling and/or a balance) and are unable to complete/resolve these items by the processing/print date your diploma will be moved to the next processing/print date.  

Please keep in mind that once your documents have been dropped in the mail Tiffin University cannot control the delivery time as it is dependent upon USPS. 


As a graduate of tiffin university, you have so much to be proud of. We are so proud of you and honored to be a part of your day. Congratulations!

To truly stand out, we must not feel compelled to fit in.
