In addition to completing any necessary graduation-related processes with your school, you will need to complete a graduation application in the SIS for the semester in which you are graduating. You will be notified by your school when the SIS application for graduation is available for a given semester.
- In the Student Center, select Apply for Graduation from the drop-down menu
|
Alternatively, you can click on the My Academics link and then Apply for graduation form that page.
|
-
On the Select Program and Degree page, verify from which Academic Program you are graduating. The system will display your current degree application status and prevent you from applying multiple times.
Note: Most students will have only one choice, but dual-degree students have multiple choices. If you are receiving two degrees in the same semester, complete the degree application process twice, once for each degree.
|
- On the Select Graduation Term page, confirm the term in which you are graduating. The terms from which you can select, and the dates during which an application can be submitted for a given term, are controlled by the system. Usually, only one term is available at a time.
|
- a. The next page displays your primary name and, if one already exists, a diploma name. Your primary name will appear on your diploma, unless you enter a diploma name (which will appear only on the diploma). If you wish to add or edit a diploma name, click on the “Edit” button to be taken to the name change process.
Note: If you elect to add or edit a diploma name, you will be taken to another page and will need to return to this process to begin the application process again from the start.
|
- b. If you select “Edit”, you will be taken to the name change page and will click on the “Add a New Name” button to add a diploma name.
|
- c.
Select Diploma from the Name Type drop-down menu, enter your desired diploma name, and then click “Save”. Return to the Student Center and begin the application process anew.
|
- d.
If you do not need to enter or edit a diploma name or have already entered one, click the “Submit Application” button to complete the process.
|
- Your SIS graduation application is now complete. Remember to complete any additional steps that may be required by your school.
|
- You can verify that you are a degree candidate at any time by selecting the Apply for Graduation link in the Student Center to see your current degree application status.
