Application for Graduation

The candidate is responsible for applying for graduation during the final semester of graduation. Depending on an individual student’s progress, this process may involve several applications. Applications must be on file in the Office of the Registrar before the degree will be awarded. The candidate must satisfy all financial obligations prior to graduation. A student’s application is good for the current term only. Please know that if a student does not successfully complete all requirements during the term of application, they must reapply during their final semester to be eligible for graduation.

The application for graduation serves several purposes and is therefore not only a necessary but also an essential component of the graduation process:

  • It assures that the candidate’s name is added to a master list of potential candidates,
  • It assures that a final program evaluation review is performed thereby certifying the candidate’s eligibility for degree candidacy,
  • It assures that a diploma order will be placed,
  • It assures that the applicant will receive information ancillary to graduation events and venues and,
  • It assures that the candidate will receive information about obtaining invitations and the proper academic regalia.
