Degree Requirements
All necessary requirements for master’s and doctoral candidates, other than final examinations, must be completed by Wednesday, December 3. This includes all grade changes for incomplete grades to be turned in to the Office of the Registrar as well as approval forms to be turned in to the Graduate School indicating results of final oral/written examinations and grade changes for thesis and dissertation research.

All necessary requirements for undergraduates must be completed by January 16, 2009. Undergraduate candidates who are graduating with honors (cum laude, magna cum laude, or summa cum laude) will be notified by the Registrar’s Office. Due to time constraints, honors for the commencement ceremony are determined as a result of last semester’s grade point averages, not those from the semester just completed. After final grades for this semester are recorded, degree honors will be recalculated.

Undergraduate candidates who are graduating with honors will be recognized with red and white honor cords. Check times and locations to pick up cords before the ceremony.

If you are having transfer credits sent to Miami to complete your degree requirements, please notify the Commencement Office.
