Applying for Graduation
-
In an effort to provide better service to our students, Wright State University, at the Dayton Campus, now offers an online graduation application at both the undergraduate and graduate levels. - Effective immediately, this graduation application replaces the old paper forms; paper forms are no longer accepted for Dayton Campus students.
- See Raider-Connect Graduation website for more information.
Commencement Requirements
