Graduation Information 

 

In order for you to receive your diploma or certificate, regardless of your decision to attend commencement ceremonies, you must complete the following tasks:

 

  • Apply to graduate.  If you are in a graduate certificate program, you must complete this application to receive your certificate.  This is important so that we can accurately identify the exact semester you will be graduating and the exact name you wish to appear on your diploma or certificate.   Depending upon the term you request and your program, you may be asked if you are requesting to attend the May ceremony. 
  • In approximately March we will ask that you complete a checkout process.  This process, depending upon the term you have requested and the program you are in, asks you for the number of tickets you will need for the ceremonies.  Graduate students will have the ability to print the paperwork to pick up their cap and gown from the bookstore.
  • After checking out, undergraduate students will be able to pick up your tickets at the Office of Student Records.   Undergraduates will be provided with the appropriate paperwork necessary to pick up your cap and gown at the bookstore.   Graduate students can print that form during the checkout process. Once tickets have been distributed to all students, we will have extras that can be distributed.   
  • Pickup your cap and gown at the bookstore if you are attending the ceremony.

The following messages could be on the student home page or on the commencement page or both:





 


(For P_UGGR_APPLY  - UG and GR Students who can apply to graduate but have not yet applied.  (They are in the p_greligible group or the p_grelig_ovr group) but do not exist in the wreg161 table (application table)))    ****Note that this population is too big because it starts with p_greligible.     That needs to be redefined.
