Graduation requirements & application

Graduation requirements are listed in the Undergraduate Catalogue.

Graduation requirements for a double major and for a second baccalaureate degree are listed in the Undergraduate Catalogue.

Application for graduation

Faculty should remind their advisees to file an application for graduation by the deadlines listed in the Calendar of Events in the Undergraduate Catalogue. Students may apply online for graduation or stop by the office of the Registrar to fill out the form. Faculty should review carefully, during the preregistration period prior to graduation, the degree audit of those students who are planning to graduate. Careful advising at this time will allow the student to make up any deficiencies in the graduation requirements.

The authority and responsibility for final approval of applicants for graduation is delegated to the appropriate dean and the President of the Faculty Senate.

Request for waiver of degree requirement

Any substitution or deviation from the requirements for graduation as stated in the catalogue under which the student has elected to graduate must be approved by the faculty advisor, the department chairperson, and the appropriate dean. A "waiver/substitution" form, available in the department, is forwarded to the Office of the Registrar.
