Graduation Requirements: Undergraduate
Students must earn 39 or more hours in upper level courses with at least 21 hours in the major and 15 to 18 total hours in the
minor, depending upon the field, with a grade of "C" or better in each course. (The Bachelor of Music degree and the Bachelor
of Fine Arts degree are more professionally oriented programs and require more hours in the major field. The performance
major in the Bachelor of Music or the Bachelor of Fine Arts and the Bachelor of Business Administration major do not require
a minor field.) Together with the core curriculum and electives and/or foreign language, statistics, and computer science
courses, depending on the major, these requirements will normally total 120 hours, not including the physical education
requirement. Specific graduation requirements for under-graduate programs in the Katherine Reese Pamplin College of Arts
and Sciences, the College of Education, and the College of Business Administration are found in the "Undergraduate Programs"
section of this catalog.
Application for Graduation: The application must be completed and filed with the registrar no later than the mid-term date of
the semester preceding the final semester of course work. Students must be approved formally for graduation by the faculty.
Graduation Exercises: Degrees are conferred formally at the close of the spring semester (in May) and at the close of the fall
semester (in December). Students who complete all requirements for the degree by the end of spring semester receive degrees
in May. Students who complete all requirements for the degree by the end of the summer term or fall semester receive degrees
in December. Degree candidates are encouraged to attend graduation exercises. If they are unable to do so, however, they
are required to notify the Registrar's Office in writing. Payment of Financial Obligations: No student will be permitted to graduate if he or she is in default on any payment due to the university. | ||||||
