    Important!<\/h3>\n

    Check your name on the SSC as this is how it will appear on your diploma. If your legal name isn’t up to date, please contact your ESP or visit\u00a0students.ubc.ca<\/a>\u00a0for details on how to change it.<\/p>\n

    After you apply<\/h3>\n

    Check your application status on the SSC. Your application status is located in the Graduation Details box on your application.<\/p>\n

    Most faculties complete the approval process and enter their decisions into the SSC in April or May. Senate then meets to confer degrees, which shows up on the SSC about a week before the ceremony.<\/p>\n
