In February students must complete the "degree candidate form" on ANGEL which tells us exactly how you want your name on your diploma and gives us the correct information to be placed in the Commencement Program.
The Alumni Office will mail information regarding cap and gown orders and invitations to your current mailing address in February. Please refer to their website for specific information: http://alumni.iupui.edu/commencement/2010/info.html
