Completion of Master's Requirements

When the student's department determines that the student has completed all degree requirements, a Completion of Master's Degree Requirements form, signed by the three faculty members of the student's committee (two of whom must be tenure-track faculty members) will be submitted to the Graduate College. Approval of this form by the Dean of the Graduate College will certify completion of degree requirements. For dates by which requirements must be met to graduate in a particular semester, refer to the Deadline Sheets, available in departments, in the Graduate Degree Certification Office, and online at the Graduate College website. Modifications in the Plan of Study may be made on the Completion of Degree Requirement form or on the Changes in Student's Records form. Modifications may consist of changes in coursework, changes in addresses, or changes in names. Name changes also require that an official name change be filed with the Registrar's Office. All outstanding fees must be cleared before the final completion date. Any financial encumbrances will delay mailing of the diploma and transcripts. Contact the Bursar's office, Room 208, Administration Building or 621-3232. All grades must be submitted for Incompletes and current semester coursework must be received before the degree is considered completed. A student must be in good academic standing at the time of submission of the Completion of Master's Degree Requirements form.
