Grad Advising has been pretty reliable about informing students nearing degree-completion of when they need to apply for graduation, and how to go about doing so, but now and then a few students slip through their net and end up missing the appropriate deadline. The procedures, dates, and links are all in the Graduate Student Handbook (always accessible as a downloadable PDF through the left-hand column of this blog). Just for simplicity I am also linking right here the page explaining degree conferral procedures. So for example, as that linked page reads, students for whom the fall semester will be their last should submit their conferral application by October 15. Students ending on the traditional schedule, following the end of a spring semester, would need to submit the conferral application by February 2. -CL
