Graduation Applications

Q: When are graduation applications for spring 2013 due?

A. They are due in the COMM Department no later than Friday, September 21, 2012. Make sure that you bring your application, a transcript and a completed checksheet to the office by that day. Your application will not be reviewed unless you have submitted all three.  Once the chair reviews your application, you will be contacted and asked to bring it to Griz Central.

Q: Why are so many graduation applications turned back from the COMM department chair?

A: They are turned back because they are incomplete. It is imperative that you specify which catalogue you are using for your major requirements. Moreover, once you pick a catalogue, make sure that the classes you have selected are the same as the courses offered in that particular catalogue.
