I'm supposed to graduate in June, but I can't find what date in June. For those of you have graduated recently, how exactly does this work? Is there an actual date in June that I just can't find on their website? Or, is this some kind of general graduation where throughout the month of June they send out diplomas? Most importantly, if I have a June graduation then when can I reasonably expect to get my diploma?

It should be on your confirmation letter when you suppose to receive your diploma and transcript copy.

Thanks superpotsky,
I had applied for graduation, but I applied a little late for the June graduation. This should also be a lesson to others -- don't wait for your grades before applying for graduation. Keep a close eye on the deadlines. In my case, I only had my Capstone course left, which I started in January. The graduation filing deadline was April 1st, but I didn't receive my grade until April 9th. I should have applied before receiving my grade, but I did call the registrars office, and they said I could still apply for June graduation and to just fax them my paperwork and write "for June graduation" on it. This is what I did. Unfortunately, two weeks ago I received an email back saying they had received my request for graduation in September. I spent days on the phone and sending emails trying get my graduation moved to June. Today I finally received an email stating that they are moving me to the June graduation, but I didn't receive any details. The email just said "I will move you to the June graduation per your request."
By the way, I was the one who didn't keep an eye on the filing deadlines, so I can't fault Thomas Edison. In fact, they didn't have to let me graduate in June, so I have nothing but praise for them for not making me wait.
