Graduating this Semester? Double Check!
It is up to YOU to double check your currently registered courses and ensure you are good for Spring graduation.
We recommend you do the following now, during the first week of class, and on January 27th (add/drop date) to ensure you are good to go! You should also re-check if you adjust your schedule.
- You should see NO RED in Degree Works and the degree progress toolbar will be at 98%. It doesn't go to 100% until all grades are in. If you plan to graduate and see RED or 99% or 97% or below-- contact your Academic and Career Coach immediately as you will not graduate without changes.
- IF a missing course involves a major or minor outside of the BCOB, contact that advisor!
- Apply for graduation! The deadline is February 24th but applying now ensures you get relevant information as quickly as possible. All graduation information is found on the website and our office does not have any further information or details.
