OSU is not able to hold an in-person commencement ceremony for the 2020 graduates nor the upcoming 2021 graduates due to COVID-19 related restrictions on in-person gatherings. If you planned to obtain your diploma at the 2020 or 2021 ceremony, please see the directions below for how to obtain your diploma.
How to obtain your original diploma:
Starting Summer 2019, original diplomas are mailed free of charge via USPS first class mail (standard delivery with no tracking). This service is provided by the Michael Sutter Company, our vendor that prints OSU diplomas.
-
Once your final grades are recorded and your degree is awarded (see important graduation/diploma dates here), you will receive an email from [email protected] in your OSU email account.
-
This email includes your Secure ID to order your diploma. Please save this email for any future diploma requests; you use the same Secure ID for every transaction.
-
Within 9 business days after submitting your diploma order, the vendor mails your diploma at no charge to you. Please be aware that domestic delivery may take up to one month and international delivery may take up to two months.
-
Due to COVID-19, we've suspended temporarily the ability to order to pick up at the Office of the Registrar. If you need this service, please contact [email protected]
How to order another (duplicate) diploma:
-
Go to the OSU diploma vendor website. If you do not yet have a Secure ID then click on the “Submit a Diploma Request” button, complete the information, and then click on the “Submit My Diploma Request” button. We will process your request and then send you an email with your Secure ID allowing you to complete the process.
-
If you already have your Secure ID then enter your OSU ID and Last Name, review your information, and then order your diploma.
-
The charge for a duplicate diploma is $36.
-
Choose your shipping method; shipping options start at $3.50.
-
Two business days following your order submission, your duplicate diploma will be mailed.
Students who were confidential students and never revoked their confidentiality request will need to work with the Office of the Registrar in person to order a duplicate diploma if they have lost their Secure ID from Michael Sutter.
Duplicate diplomas are printed on current diploma stock, which is 8.5 x 11 inches.
How to order an eDiploma:
After you received your original diploma, you may order an eDiploma (PDF diploma).
These are available for a one-time $8 fee. You will log in the same way you would to order a duplicate diploma (directions above), so be sure to have your Secure ID. If you have not received one, you can request one by clicking the ‘Submit a Diploma Request’ link and providing the requested information.
Once on the ordering page, you will see a button that says ‘Order my eDiploma’ in the upper right-hand corner. Click that and follow the instructions. You will receive your certified eDiploma minutes after you place your order.
