Diplomas

Students with two majors in the same college may receive only one Bachelor degree with their multiple majors listed on the transcript. However, if you have more than one major and they are in different colleges, you should expect to have two options to select. You will submit the applications one at a time.

Multiple majors: which ceremony to attend Students will need to first apply for the degree in the college/school ceremony they wish to participate. Students will then go back and apply to graduate with the next degree they will be completing. https://www.purdue.edu/commencement/students/multipleDegree.html

Students who have multiple majors only attend one commencement ceremony.  The first major you select during the application to graduate process determines which commencement ceremony you attend.  You must then go back and submit a new application for any additional programs or certificates.
