Students will hold on to their signed Report of Dissertation Committee Form - as well their corrected dissertation and any other required materials -  until the semester they plan to graduate. Once they have applied to graduate, the final edited dissertation document must be uploaded through the Graduate School portal. Once the dissertation is uploaded, you will then email the Graduate School your Report of Dissertation Committee Form as well as any other required forms to gradstudentsvcs@austin.utexas.edu. (Students going on internship following the final oral will wait to upload the dissertation and turn in the required Graduate School materials until they have completed internship and are graduating.)  

The Graduate Adviser will follow-up with the Graduate School by email each semester/summer to ensure the requirement for future dissertation registrations is waived for those students who have successfully defended and are on internship. Remember: Students’ last semester of dissertation registration is the one in which they successfully defend their dissertationFor CP and SCCP students enrolling in only Internship in the semester(s) following successful dissertation defense, students should contact the Graduate Coordinator to request a petition to the Graduate School to waive the dissertation enrollment requirement for the subsequent semesters.

Students should be careful to ensure their dissertations are ready to upload and that all materials are in the Graduate School office before the deadline. Failure to have everything turned in by the deadline means a student will have to register for dissertation hours again the following semester, and may also be subject to fees for past semesters of waived dissertation hours.
