Graduation

Candidates for degrees must formally apply for graduation. Students must submit a graduation application to the Office of the Registrar in order to receive a degree.


Degree requirements are based on the catalog under which the student began full-time study. A student who discontinues enrollment on a full-time basis for one or more calendar years is required to meet program requirements as defined in the current catalog and/or as approved by the program coordinator. Although faculty advisors are available to assist students in program planning, the student is ultimately responsible for program completion.

Commencement exercises are held once each academic year at the completion of spring semester. Students who complete requirements during the fall, spring, or summer session are encouraged to be recognized for their achievements at the annual graduation ceremony.
