Thans in advance to the native speekers for a proofreading: it must be a very official form, of course

The President ... with the endorsement of the honorable ... ceremony ... to the degree ... granted
Note - it has to be "degree" not "grade" - M.A. is a degree
Also "sign" is wrong - usually on degrees we talk about "right and privileges"
