APPLYING FOR GRADUATION

Students who plan to graduate with an associate, baccalaureate or masters degree need to file an application for graduation by their scheduling appointment time the semester before they expect to graduate.

Candidates for graduation should print a degree audit from their iClarion portal.  The degree audit should be attached to the completed application and routed as follows:

    Student to advisor
    Advisor to department chairperson of minor (if appropriate)
    Department chairperson of minor to department chairperson of major
    Chairperson to College Dean
    College Dean to Graduate Dean (graduate students only)
    Dean to Office of the Registrar

It is important for students to start this process the semester before they expect to graduate so that a preliminary check can be made to determine that all degree requirements will have been completed by the expected graduation term (and to resolve any deficiencies that would delay graduation).
Filing an application the semester before graduation also provides adequate time for routing the application through the approval process and assures that students will receive appropriate information about the commencement ceremony (academic attire, the program, tickets etc).
