Where do I get a graduation application?
Applications for graduation may be obtained from the Department Office (10 Ackerman). The application requires the advisor's signature. After obtaining the signature, the form should be taken to the department office. It will then be sent to the associate dean for final approval.
Deadline: Contact the department office for deadline dates.
I need a copy of my transcript. How do I obtain this?
You must send or drop off a written request to the Registrar's office with the following information:
- Your full name and Social Security number
- Your current address
- Whether you graduated or, if not, when you were enrolled
- Number of copies you are requesting
- Where you want the transcripts sent
Your first transcript is free. There is a charge for each additional copy. Call 724-357-2217 for current transcript fee information.

I have graduated and I need to obtain a copy of my ADA Verification Forms. How do I obtain these forms?
The signed verification statement documents that an individual has completed the requirements of an ADA-approved/accredited dietetics education program and at least a bachelor's degree.
You will automatically receive six ADA verification statements, at no cost, after graduation has been verified and the degree has been posted on your transcript. The copies of this statement will be mailed to you six to eight weeks after the completion of all degree requirements. This document cannot be sent until the dean's office has officially notified us that all degree requirements have been met. Since this may not be in time for the dietetic internship submission deadline, please initially submit a Declaration of Intent form with the internship application. The approximate date you will receive the verification statement is: December graduates, February 28; May graduates, July 15; August graduates, October 15.
You may contact the department office for additional copies.
One signed copy is kept on file for emergencies. Photocopies are not allowed. Additional copies can be obtained by writing to the Department of Food and Nutrition. Each request should contain the following:
- Name used at IUP
- Social Security number
- Date you attended IUP and date of graduation
- Number of copies needed
- Address where you want the verification statements sent
Now that I have graduated, I want to keep up to date with changes at IUP and also be sure that IUP has my contact information. How can I find out about the IUP Alumni Association?
The IUP Alumni Association provides alumni information through IUP Magazine. You may either update your address with the Department of Food and Nutrition or through the Alumni office (724-357-7942).
The address is Office of Alumni Relations, Breezedale Alumni Center, 880 School Street, IUP, Indiana, PA 15705. In addition, please keep the department up to date on career and address changes so that you may receive information and alumni mailings.
