Graduation Recognition

Family members must be physicians to be eligible. Hooders must wear full academic regalia and will need to sit with the other hooders next to the stage.

Confirm your information in the 2019 Class Composite by April 1. If you take no action, your photograph will be automatically included in the composite. Confirm the information here.

IMPORTANT: Follow these steps closely to avoid confusion

1. Go to this website to begin the ordering
   1. Click on ORDER NOW under Cap and Gown
2. Next, select “IU – School of Medicine” from the dropdown box under IUPUI
   1. IMPORTANT NOTE: Once “IU – School of Medicine” is selected, the date Saturday, May 11 populates. That date is incorrect. IU School of Medicine’s Graduation Recognition ceremony in May 10. However, this error in the system will not affect your order.
   2. Choose “Doctorate” from the drop down menu for your degree type
   3. Click continue.
3. You may notice the website states “If this is not your ceremony date and time then we are not currently taking orders for your ceremony.  Please check back at a later date.” IGNORE this note and continue forward with placing their order.

All eligible students will receive an email from MD Student News with the form to fill out by April 12.

The message with the form will be sent out with reminders on:

• 6 pm, March 25
  
• 6 pm, April 1
  
• 6 pm, April 10
  
• 8 am, April 12

The Office of the Registrar sent all students an email in February 2019 showing how each student’s name will appear on his or her diploma.

If your name is correct, no action is required on your part.

If your name is incorrect or you would like to make an adjustment to the name that appears on your diploma, follow these steps:

1. For a change to your last name, you will need to complete the ‘Request for Change of Name Form‘ and provide the required documentation and photo ID.
2. If you need to make changes other than a last name change, please submit the name as you would like to it to appear on your diploma to iupuidgr@iupui.edu.
3. Please note that all name changes must meet Indiana University’s Preferred Name Policy. All requests must include your University ID number.
