Completing Your Degree
Successful completion of your course load is only one part of completing your degree requirements. The Graduate School requires you to complete a few additional items before you graduate. Don't worry, were here to help. Let us guide you to graduation.
Graduate School Requirements
In order to graduate you must submit forms, specific to your degree type, to the Graduate School. Review what your program requires and when they are due on our Graduation Requirements and Deadlines page.
Additionally, students pursuing a master’s degree, advanced certificate, AuD, DNP or EdD are required to apply for graduation in HUB, in order to become a candidate for degree conferral.

Master’s students who complete a thesis and all PhD and EdD students, must electronically submit their final thesis or dissertation to the Graduate School. Visit our Electronic Thesis and Dissertation (ETD) Submission Guidelines page for instruction on how format your ETD and complete this process.
