All students must apply to graduate (see http://oregonstate.edu/registrar/apply-graduation). It is recommended that a student submit an application at least three terms before they are planning to graduate. Graduation applications are available online via your Student Online Services Account. Using this application, undergraduate and graduate students may apply for graduation online, view existing applications, cancel an existing application, and indicate whether they intend to attend commencement or designate a diploma delivery method. These functions are available in the Student Records menu of your Student Online Services account. Please keep the following in mind: 1) Undergraduates must be of senior standing before being eligible to submit an application. 2) If a student chooses to defer their existing application to a different term, they should be directed to cancel their existing application and submit a new application. 3) Students receiving more than two degrees will need to contact the Registrar’s office for assistance. 4) Students should make all necessary changes to their program prior to submitting an application for graduation. In the interest of providing accurate degree audits it is imperative that the curriculum under which the student applies for graduation accurately reflects their educational goals.

What if I have fulfilled a prerequisite requirement and the registration system says I haven’t?
January 31st, 2013If the prerequisite coursework was transfer or post-bacc coursework, the registration system likely did not recognize it as fulfilling the prerequisite. This is common for semester system transfer credits that articulate as LDT or UDT, rather than an equivalent OSU course; or, for post-bacc coursework that is not articulated to a student’s OSU transcript. A general rule is that you should contact the instructor for the class directly. In your communication, be sure to include everything the instructor will need to make the decision – for example, Student ID, CRN for the course you want to register for, a clear argument and evidence that you have completed the prerequisite coursework. If the instructor grants permission to register for the course, they will notify the administrative support staff for the department and request that a course overrride be processed. If necessary, your advisor can also help facilitate the course override process. TIP: If you know that you may have a prerequisite issue for a course of interest, resolve it IN Advance of your priority registration date so that you can register without interruption.
