Planning on Graduating at this Spring's Commencement?

Hi all,

I know that I’ve sent this out before and in several communication tools. However, it is important enough to send another remainder. 

Are you planning on graduating and attending Commencement this Spring?

If so, please be aware of the commencement changes due to the Dome being renovated in the forwarded email below.   Remember, that you need to have your graduation application submitted to the graduate college by the 2/11/11 deadline.  However, you need to make sure that you give your adviser time to review your application.  In other words, make sure you get your graduation application documents to your adviser in plenty of time for  him/her to review and submit it though to our Department Chair.

I recommend that if you are, have your graduation application submitted to your adviser by January 31, 2011.

The Graduation Application Materials need to include the following:

1.       Graduation Application [retrieve at…http://home.nau.edu/gradcol/graduation.asp]

2.       Unofficial Transcript

3.       Completed Program of Studies [fill out the semester and date for each course taken]
