Graduation Process

Graduation is not an automatic process. Students must apply. See the following timeline to learn about the process.

Learn about our high school and junior college graduation requirements, in our academic catalog.

Note: You must be in good financial and disciplinary standing with NMMI in order to receive your diploma.

Enroll and successfully complete the appropriate courses

Meet with your advisor to create a class schedule that will enable you to graduate at end of term. It is highly recommended that you visit the Registrar’s Office for a graduation audit.

Visit the Registrar's Office for a Graduation Audit

We will catch any scheduling issues that may prevent graduation. Doing this before the end of the add/drop registration period will allow you to add a class (or two) that you could be lacking.

Apply to Graduate

High school students will be notified when to apply.

College students should visit the Registrar’s Office to obtain the application.

Preferably, complete this step before the end of the add/drop registration period.
