Graduation Information for Graduate Students
For specific degree requirements, consult individual program descriptions in the Graduate Catalog. A student planning to graduate must submit forms to the Registrar's Office, the first forms due in the semester prior to graduation.
See the Graduate Student Deadline Dates for Graduation for a list of the forms and their due dates.
Related to graduation are the commencement and graduate hooding ceremonies held in fall and spring terms. There is no ceremony in summer term. Summer graduates may participate in the fall graduate hooding ceremony.
For more information on commencement ceremonies, please see the Office of the University Registrar's website. Information on the Graduate Hooding Ceremony, which is administered by the Graduate School, can be found on the left side of this page.
