Apply for Graduation

Students must apply to graduate. Applications for graduation must be filed with the Admission and Records Office prior to the published deadline.

Before applications are approved, the following documents must be submitted:

Degree plan that shows a reasonable expectation that the courses in the degree plan will be completed by the graduation date.
Transcripts that demonstrate a 2.0 GPA for all courses in the degree plan. A course is counted each time it is taken whether failed or passed, unless excluded by GPA adjustment.
A receipt showing payment of cap and gown fee and diploma fee.
Clearance of all financial and property matters to date.
Approval of the department sponsoring the student.
Make final application for graduation and pay all fees by the deadline date as stated in the current catalog.

Graduation candidates who have not achieved a 2.0 GPA in their major field will be removed from the graduation list at the beginning of the semester. If a student under such condition does complete all degree requirements, then the student must apply for the next regularly scheduled graduation date.

The student is responsible for making the graduation application, seeking the advice of an advisor about degree plans, and verifying compliance with all degree requirements.
