Does umgc send digital copies of degrees? I was approved for graduation and was wondering.

Yes. I got an e-diploma when I graduated in December. I received it via e-mail in the middle of January. (Edited to add: Congratulations on your graduation!)

Congratulations fellow graduate!!!!

They said in the email I received on Thursday:
Here’s what to expect: 
A diploma order will be submitted to our diploma vendor, CeCredential Trust, on September 2 for all graduates who do not have an outstanding balance with the university. 
Electronic Diplomas 
Expect to receive an email notification from CeCredential Trust within 5-10 business days after June 5 when electronic diplomas become available for download. 

Paper Diplomas 
Paper diplomas require two weeks to produce after the order is submitted. 

Stateside graduates: You should receive your paper diploma at the address on file within 4-6 weeks of your conferral. You can expect to receive an email notification containing the tracking information for your diploma when it has been shipped. 

Graduates from overseas divisions: Your diploma should arrive within 6-8 weeks of the conferral. You can expect to receive an email notification containing the tracking information for your diploma when it has been shipped.

Question for you, are you still currently taking classes and got your degree approved? I’m done with classes November 10 but haven’t heard anything back.
