Clearance for Graduation
Prospective graduates must obtain an Application for Graduation from the Office of Admissions and submit it to the Registrar before they can be considered for graduation. Students are advised to file the application in the quarter preceding that in which they expect to graduate.
During each registration period, graduating seniors meet with their advisors to determine whether their proposed class enrollments meet all requirements for their degrees.
For doctoral students, two bound copies of the dissertation must be submitted to the Registrar and University Librarian before the degree can be awarded.
Graduation ceremonies are held in June. Diplomas will be mailed to those students who have completed their degree programs and must return home in advance of the ceremonies.
All fees and tuition debts must be paid in full sixty (60) days prior to graduation, and all graduating students must pay the graduation fees.
