YSU 2013 FALL GRADS

About 620 students received diplomas during fall commencement, which was Dec. 15. Because the list of Youngstown State University candidates had to be prepared in advance, it is tentative. The diploma, together with a certified transcript, is the proof of graduation. Honors program graduates are indicated by an asterisk (*).
