Finalizing the Academic Record
The university confers degrees after Fall, Spring and Summer terms. All final grades and official transcripts for applicable transfer work must be received in order for degree conferral to occur. According to university policy and federal reporting requirements, degrees must be conferred and finalized once a student has fulfilled all requirements.
Once the degree is conferred, the academic record is considered complete and final. No further changes will be made unless there is documented clerical error or the student successfully appeals under the Grade Grievance policy. It is the responsibility of the student to notify the Office of the Registrar within 30 days of the degree conferral date.
Course repeats for the purposes of bolstering the final degree GPA are not permitted after a degree is conferred. No transfer work will be accepted after the degree is conferred.
Students may not retroactively seek to have additional majors, minors or concentrations added to a degree after it has been posted. However, students may seek readmission as either non-degree seeking students or as second degree seekers after their initial degree has been posted.
