IMPORTANT: Details of each step discussed in video above

  1. Determine your eligibility for graduation – Run a “MyProgress report” on your MyAcademics page on My菠菜网lol正规平台 to see remaining degree requirements
    • Earned at least 85 units (with no more than 70 units from community colleges)
    • Have good academic standing
    • Able to complete all degree requirements within 1 or 2 semesters
    • Graduation status on MyProgress report indicates:  “Eligible for
    • Graduation” & an “Expected Grad Term” listed (e.g., Spring 202x or Fall 202x)

  2. Apply for graduation online – use the “Apply for graduation” link on your MyAcademics page  (see Applying for Graduation Online tutorial [pdf])
    • Apply for graduation 1 YEAR before the term in which you expect to fulfill all degree requirements (e.g.,  If expected graduation term is Spring 2025, then apply for graduation in Spring 2024).  
    • The application “deadlines” posted online are used to determine PRIORITY registration status only (NOTE:  you may apply for graduation even if these deadlines have passed)  
    • In general, students should apply for graduation as soon as they are eligible to to do so
