The Program of Study Form confirms that you have taken the courses required for your graduate degree. The Program of Study Form must be submitted to the College of Graduate Studies no later than the end of the semester prior to the expected graduation term. Degree seeking students admitted Fall 2010 or later will complete their program under DegreeWorks.
Application for Graduation

Ordinarily, all Masters, Specialists and Doctoral students should be prepared to submit a graduation application in WINGS by the end of January if they plan to complete their graduation requirements in Spring or Summer, or by the end of August if they plan to complete their graduation requirements in the Fall. To apply, please click on the “Apply to Graduate” link on your Student Landing Page in your WINGS channel.
A Doctoral student is not permitted to walk in a graduation ceremony until all requirements for the degree have been satisfied and the student cleared for graduation.
