2017-2018 Undergraduate Bulletin

Commencement

The annual commencement ceremony is held following the close of the spring semester.

Students who have applied for graduation whose degree requirements will be completed by the end of the summer session may attend commencement if all of the following conditions are met at the time the Office of the Registrar certifies the graduation list:

  • At the end of the spring semester, the student will have no more than two courses remaining to complete their degree requirements 
  • The student has registered for and paid for the required course(s) during the summer session immediately following commencement
  • The student has a minimum overall GPA of 2.00 and a minimum GPA in their major of 2.00

Students who are prospective summer graduates will be listed as such in the commencement program.

Participation in commencement does not necessarily indicate the completion of degree requirements. The transcript is the official academic record and will indicate any degrees that have been conferred.
