Graduation Requirements

To meet graduation requirements, undergraduate students must:

• Submit a completed graduation checkout/ exit sheet to the campus records office;
• Comply with the Satisfactory Academic Progress Policy standards;
• Meet program attendance and residency requirements;
• Successfully complete all courses required for degree completion; 
• Comply with the financial terms of enrollment; and
• Satisfactorily resolve any outstanding obligations on the student account or library account.

The University has the right to set or change all academic standards and students are required to meet those standards to be considered as successfully completing their program.

It is important that students confirm completion of all graduation requirements with the campus records office. Students should not assume they are graduating until they have completed all graduation requirements.

Digital degrees and diplomas are issued approximately three weeks after graduation requirements have been met.  Paper degrees and diplomas are mailed approximately six to eight weeks after completion of all graduation requirements.  For ordering final transcripts, please see the Transcripts section of this catalog.

Please see the Commencement section of this catalog for information regarding the commencement ceremony.
