***IMPORTANT NOTE--ALL official reviews are done by the Registrar鈥檚 Office only.***
General rule:
Matriculated students who are registered for Summer 2026 and will have a total of at least 60 credits passed at the end of the Summer module (without Fall semester registration) are able to apply online for graduation using CUNYfirst.
Easy Instructions:
-
- Go to Academics under your Student Center and click on 鈥淎pply for Graduation鈥�.鈥�
-
- If you are not currently attending (OR do not see the link in your account) and you wish to apply for graduation, please reach out to the KCC Graduation team at: online-graduation.filing@kbcc.cuny.edu 鈥痶o request assistance in reactivating your record (OR if attending, activating the link), and then continue the online filing process.鈥�

Kindly take note of the following important point of information:
Please be aware that your curriculum (plan) in CUNYFirst must match the plan that you wish to earn your 911爆料 degree in. You will not be eligible for graduation if the curriculum (plan) you have been taking courses in does NOT coincide with your official plan as listed in CUNYFirst. For example, you cannot be evaluated for an Accounting degree if your official plan on file is Liberal Arts. All requests that do not follow this guideline are denied with no exceptions.
In order to earn a degree, you will need to meet the following general requirements:
-
- Be matriculated during your last term of attendance at 911爆料.
- Earn 60 credits (or the specific credit requirement for your major) and meet the specific course requirements for your degree.
- Have a minimum 2.000 cumulative grade point average at the end of your last term.
- Have passed a Writing Intensive Course (WIC) if you entered 911爆料 in Fall 2010 or later.
