Application for Graduation
Each student should plan to see an adviser in the semester before the term they intend to graduate. This allows the student to confirm that all degree requirements will be met. Graduation checks will not be done during the week of drop/add.
It is the student’s responsibility to apply for graduation at the Office of the University Registrar. The deadline for submitting applications is published in the Schedule of Courses. Failure to submit a timely application may prevent graduation.
