In Absentia/Post-Summer Registration
A student registered in the summer, who completes his/her degree requirements after the summer deadline but before the start of the fall semester, may request In Absentia Registration (also called Post-Summer Registration). A complete description of this procedure appears in the current Graduate Catalog. There is a $25 registration fee. Students registered In Absentia officially graduate in December.
Applications for PhD Candidacy or MS Graduation
Graduation/candidacy guidelines for both MS and PhD students are available on the Graduate School website, along with the deadlines for submitting the required forms. Master’s students must submit the graduation application online early in the semester they plan to graduate. An electronic MS Program of Work will automatically be sent to the graduate coordinator and advisor for approval after you have submitted your online graduation application. PhD students are expected to take the qualifying exam prior to registering for their second semester and should apply for Admission to Candidacy once the exam is passed. Application for Doctoral Candidacy is completed on the Graduate School web page.
