Eligibility

Students are required to meet both their program and degree requirements in order to be eligible to graduate. It is your responsibility to ensure that you will successfully meet these requirements as you plan your courses each semester. 

Planning tools:

1. Academic Calendar (link to current calendar)
2. College Catalogue (2013-2018 Catalogue)

Follow the Correct Catalogue

Follow the program requirements listed in the Catalogue for the year that you enrolled in the program.  For example, if you enrolled in 2019, or transitioned to the 2019 catalogue, you must follow the program requirements in the 2019 Catalogue.

Application to Graduate

1. Intention to Graduate

The Academic Audit is step 1 in the graduation process and identifies any shortfalls that may hinder graduation eligibility (low GPA, lacking courses, etc).

It is conducted during the 1st Semester of the year of graduation, thereby affording you sufficient time to establish any requisite corrective measures that may be necessary to ensure readiness for degree conferral.

The process begins with the submission of the Intention to Graduate application.  You are required to identify the courses you have outstanding.

1. Degree Conferral Application

The Degree Conferral application is step 2 in the graduation process.  All students (certificate, diploma, associate and bachelor) are required to complete this application whether they intend to attend the ceremony or not.  

1. Application to Attend Ceremony

This application is step 3 in the graduation process.  After the list of eligible candidates is made public, you will be invited to indicate your intention to attend the ceremony. This requires

1. Payment of the graduation fee
2. Submission of the application form and receipt number verifying payment
3. Regalia requirement notice
