Program Graduation Requirements
The program requirements published in this Catalog are accurate at the time of publication. The most up-to-date requirements for each program are published annually in the form of a Degree Sheet. While students are well advised to follow the most recent Degree Sheet, students are permitted to graduate under the program requirements of any Degree Sheet published since the student started at the College; however, no student is permitted to graduate using a Degree Sheet that is more than five (5) years old. A student must have successfully completed at least one course in order for the five-year period to begin. A part-time student who spends more than five years at the College should work closely with an academic advisor or a counselor in the Student Development Center to be certain that all graduation requirements are met.
Graduation and Filing for a Degree
Degrees are conferred three times each year in December, May and August. Commencement exercises are held at the conclusion of the Spring semester and all eligible students are urged to attend.
The Application for Degree must be submitted to Records and Registration by the deadlines listed in the Schedule of Classes. If there are unmet degree requirements, the degree application may not be approved.
Students are charged a non-refundable fee of $30 upon applying for graduation. Students applying for more than one degree are charged an additional $20 per degree. Although the fee is non-refundable, students who fail to graduate will not be charged an additional fee if they subsequently re-apply for the same degree.
