Apply for Graduation/Graduation Fee
Graduate and undergraduate students must Apply for Graduation immediately after you register for your final semester at UW-La Crosse:
· December and Winter Intersession graduates must file by May 1
·
May and
Summer graduates must file by December 1
The
Application for Graduation can be found on your Student
Center in WINGS. Click the Group Box drop down arrow found under
the Academics section of your Student Center. Click Apply for
Graduation and hit the double arrow icon (this will take you to
the My Academic's page). Click on your Academic Program link.
Select the Expected Graduation Term and hit Continue. Read the
Graduation Instructions and Continue. Verify that all of the
information is correct. If so, click on Submit Application. If
not, click the Select Different Program and make the necessary
adjustments.
Students wishing to apply for an Associate
Degree or who are in a Certificate program need to fill out a
form in the Records & Registration Office, 117 Graff Main Hall.
Your Dean's Office verifies to the university whether or not you
have met all the requirements for your degree. You are
expected to have met with that office before your final semester
begins, to confirm you will meet all degree requirements. If you
have not already had this meeting, immediately contact your
Dean's Office to arrange an appointment with appropriate
personnel for this review.
You should also review your Advisement
Report (AR) after you have finished registering for your final
semester, and raise any concerns or questions with your Dean's
Office.
The Records Office will send an e-mail shortly after mid-semester of your graduation term referring you to the Commencement website.
You are automatically charged a $15 graduation fee once you reach 95 credits (undergraduates) or 20 credits (graduates). This is a one-time fee and applies whether or not you choose to attend the commencement ceremony.
