Dear Prospective Fall Graduates, 

There are some changes to graduation processing that I'd like to bring to
your attention: 

For Fall 2010 Conferral, the online graduation application will be turned
off on November 12th.  After that date, students will be required to
complete a paper application and request their advisor's signature.  This
process will help the Registrar's Office manage late graduation applicants.
After the deadline, the student will be required to take more responsibility
for making sure that all requirements for graduation have been met.  

This week we are beginning to audit the graduate graduation applications for
Fall 2010.  Please check the following required document carefully and
submit them to me by November 12th, 2010.
