COMMENCEMENT CEREMONY PARTICIPATION REQUEST FORM "Walk Only"

COMMENCEMENT CEREMONY PARTICIPATION REQUEST FORM "Walk Only"
Please read the statement below to consider your eligibility to participate in the Spring Commencement Ceremony. Do not complete this form if you applied for graduation.
Special permission to participate must be granted by the Office of the Registrar. All students are required to submit the Commencement Participation form by APRIL 10, 2025 and meet the criteria outlined below:

Undergraduate students who are within eight credits of completing all degree requirements and have a plan to complete all remaining requirements in the subsequent Summer term may, with the approval of the Office of the Registrar, participate in the Commencement Ceremony. A student who wishes to participate will need to have earned a minimum of 120 or more credits (including Spring term in progress courses) by the date of the graduation application but have a maximum of eight outstanding credits to meet all requirements for the degree. These students must be registered to earn the credits in the Summer term to be eligible to participate. Students must register for their final eight credits by March 31, 2025. Undergraduate students who apply for graduation or request to participate in the Commencement Ceremony must complete the necessary forms by April 10, 2025. Not applying by the deadline forfeits participation in the Commencement Ceremony and the Commencement Ceremony program booklet.

The University also recognizes that certain graduate programs require their students to complete their degree requirements in the Summer following the Commencement Ceremony. With that requirement in place the University will afford those graduate students the privilege to participate in the Commencement Ceremony without completing degree requirements. These graduate students are eligible to participate in the ceremony, with permission of their program chair and are required to submit the Commencement Participation form by April 10, 2025.

All students (undergraduate and graduate) who do not apply for graduation by APRIL 10, 2025 forfeit their inclusion in the Commencement Ceremony and program. The University will make every effort to facilitate their graduation but cannot guarantee that the student will be accommodated.

The graduation fee is not charged for this application.
