Graduation Procedures
Before you are approved for graduation, you will need to provide the following documentation and completed forms. Your advisor will review all of the paperwork listed below and sign off on it before it is routed to the English Department office. Do not wait to the last minute to complete this paperwork; it is best to complete paperwork in the semester before you graduate so that if any problems arise, they can be resolved in a timely fashion. We also recommend that you make a copy of these completed forms for your own records.
