Undergraduates are urged to request a listing of deficiencies (Senior Deficiency Statement) at least two trimesters prior to their graduation. Forms are available in the Registrar's Office or students can apply online. Any exceptions must have approval from the department where the major or minor is involved or from the Curriculum and Degree Requirements Committee when general education requirements are affected.
Senior Deficiency Statement requests are sent to the advisor(s) and, when returned, are finalized in the Registrar's Office. Copies are sent to the advisor and the student.
Every student is required to submit an Application for Degree at least one trimester preceding the trimester in which graduation is planned. Applications are available in the Registrar's Office or apply online.
Undergraduates who receive a grade of "D" or "F" in a course may repeat the course to raise the grade, provided in the meantime the student has not completed a more advanced course for which the repeated course is a prerequisite. When a course is repeated, both grades appear on the transcript, but only the higher grade is used in the cumulative GPA. Petition forms are available from the Registrar's Office.
Undergraduates should notify the Registrar's Office if changes are needed in catalog year, degree program, or advisor(s). Catalog year and degree program changes can be changed in the Registrar's Office or submitted online. Changing to a new advisor requires the advisor's signature on the change form or a campus email from the advisor.
To ensure receipt of information about the ceremony and ordering of cap and gown, students are expected to report local addresses and telephone numbers to the Registrar's Office. This can be done through the student's campus email to the Registrar's Office or on the address change form in the office. Permanent addresses are taken from the application for admission but can be updated through the Registrar's Office.
Prior to commencement, a schedule of commencement activities will be mailed from the Registrar's Office. Included will be the form and instructions for ordering cap and gown, if attending commencement exercises. Students interested in graduation announcements should contact the Bookstore. Contact the Office of Career Services at (660)562-1250, if you wish to establish a credential file.
Just before final grades are assigned, a "graduation hold" is placed on all students who are on the graduation list. While students are allowed to see final grades, the transcript is not viewable until degrees are verified. As degrees are verified, holds are removed and transcript requests can be processed.
