She signed off with 'love, Momala', which is what her step children - Ella and 26-year-old Cole - call her.
Ella received her diploma on Thursday alongside her mother, Kerstin Emhoff.
Ella's mom marked the happy occasion on her Instagram Stories, posting several photos of the duo ahead of the ceremony. Ella's dad, Doug Emhoff, was married to Kerstin for 16 years, divorcing in 2008, before marrying Kamala in 2014.

Ella went viral after her appearance at the Presidential inauguration in a Miu Miu coat with oversized collar and chunky boots.
She has since signed with IMG Models, although she hadn't planned to forge a future in modelling.
"I was pretty surprised when everything with IMG was happening because when I was younger, I never saw that as being part of my timeline," she previously told The New York Times.
