Preparing for Graduation
It is the shared responsibility of both a student and his/her advisor to determine that all requirements for graduation have been completed by the anticipated graduation date. The advisor has the authority to approve academic work within the major; however, only the Provost of the university and the registrar have the authority to certify that all requirements for graduation have been fulfilled and post a notification of degree completion on a student’s transcript. Therefore, it is the responsibility of each student to track his/her own progress through a degree program.
