IMPORTANT!!! Commencement and UC Berkeley graduation are two entirely separate events! Commencement is a ceremony, a celebration for you and your family of the completion (or near completion!) of your college years. Participating in commencement does not signify that you have graduated. Graduation is the process by which you receive a Bachelor of Science (or Arts) degree to finish your studies at Berkeley. When you are ready to graduate, that is, officially receive a bachelor's degree, you must declare your candidacy. This is known as "putting yourself on the degree list." Contact the College of Letters and Science for information on receiving your degree.
