Graduation Information

Graduates are students who have achieved regular program admission status and have successfully completed a program of study as outlined in the College catalog with a 2.0 or higher program grade point average. In addition, a grade of “C” or higher must be earned in courses specified in the College catalog. A student who has completed all courses in a program with less than a 2.0 program grade point average is not eligible to be a graduate, but may receive a transcript. When a student reenters after withdrawal or termination, the program of study in effect at the time of reentry must be completed. A student must complete at least 25 percent of the credit hours required for graduation in residence regardless of the amount of transfer and exemption credit awarded.

All Advisor Recommendation for Graduation forms will be evaluated by the Registrar. Students should see their advisors prior to midterm of the term before their last planned term of enrollment for graduation eligibility information. All eligible graduates are encouraged to participate in the ceremony. For participation in the graduation ceremony, applications for graduation must be submitted with the required fee to the College bookstore.

Graduates who do not wish to participate in the graduation ceremony may pick up their degree/diploma/certificate any time after the graduation ceremony. No fee is required.
