Intent to Graduate and Graduation

It is the responsibility of students in all degree or advanced certification programs to notify the School of Education of their intent to graduate, by the beginning of the semester of graduation. “Intent to Graduate” forms are available in the Graduate Advising Office and online. Students must complete all program requirements and the Intent To Graduate form in order to be eligible for graduation and participation in the commencement ceremonies. Only students who have received or will be receiving an actual degree are eligible to participate in commencement ceremonies. Individuals who have completed the required curriculum for  Advanced Certificate program or Professional Diploma will be listed in the commencement program, but are not eligible to participate in commencement. Official documentation of completion of a certificate program or a professional diploma is recorded on the student’s official transcript only. 

Diplomas will be withheld from any student who has a financial obligation to the college.
