How will I know if I have completed all degree requirements to graduate?
- Within 3 weeks of receiving your graduation application, the Registrar’s Office will audit your degree plan and send you a copy of the audit by Student Post Office or mail.
- The degree audit process may take longer during peak times, such as the beginnings and endings of terms, and near graduation.
- The degree audit will include a copy of your degree plan housed in the Registrar’s Office, will indicate how you have fulfilled degree requirements to date, and will note if any requirements remain to be fulfilled.
