Congratulations! Finishing law school is a tremendous accomplishment. We look forward to celebrating with you and your family and friends at the Law School’s in-person diploma ceremony once that date becomes available.

The law school diploma ceremony, traditionally held on the second Saturday in June, is where law students receive their diploma, and the University Commencement, typically held the next day, is where degrees are actually conferred. This year, due to COVID-19, the law school and the University are postponing the in-person ceremonies until a later date, to be decided.

In the meantime, the law school will join campus in a virtual program that celebrates our graduates. Please join us on Sunday, June 14, at 10:00 am Pacific Time for this event. Once available, the livestream link can be found on the Celebration 2020 webpage as well as below. The campus wide program will be around 30 minutes long, and then we will transition to our Stanford Law program. Our SLS program will consist of remarks by Dean Martinez and a slideshow of student-submitted images from their time at SLS, followed by live Zoom rooms at 11:00 am in which students can visit with faculty and staff. Dean Martinez’s remarks and the slideshow will be available for viewing at any point after the event.

Graduates will receive their diplomas after degrees are conferred on Sunday, June 14. The University will mail diplomas after that date.
