Apply to Graduate

Students use UCanWeb to Apply to Gradate during their final semester. Students who plan to participate in the Commencement ceremony in May are required to complete a Microsoft form, see the Commencement site for details.

All students should verify their potential to complete their degree in the current semester before applying to graduate. Use your DegreeWorks audit to review for any outstanding requirements. Check that the Requirements dial in your Degree Progress bar is at 98% (will reach 100% after completion of the last semester) AND check that all blocks in the audit say either Complete or In-Progress. If you think the audit is in error, contact your advisor or your Dean’s Office.

Application for Graduation is open on these dates:

Term	Dates
Graduating at end of Spring term	Apply between January 1 and March 15
Graduating at end of Summer term	Apply between June 1 and July 31
Graduating at end of Fall term	Apply between August 1 and November 30
Graduating at end of Winter term	Apply between December 1 and December 31

All students are encouraged to apply, as it ensures that the campus knows how you want your name displayed on your diploma and your forwarding address.
