ATTN: CEE Seniors – Apply to Graduate Now!

Posted on by

Hi CEE Seniors,

If you plan to complete your degree between AUT22 and SUM23, remember to apply to graduate if you haven’t already done so! Additionally, if you have friends who are seniors in our department, remind them to complete this process too. Instructions below:

  1. Run a fresh degree audit (DARS) and carefully review your remaining requirements. Make sure your course plan includes all of them. In your final quarter, your degree audit needs to show that all requirements are either completed or in-progress.
  2. Update your MyPlan so that it reflects your course plan through your intended graduation quarter. If you’re unsure of the specific courses you’ll take, you may use placeholders. Ex: “Technical elective” or “5 credit VLPA course”.
  3. Once you’ve run a fresh audit and updated your MyPlan, complete this google form [forms.gle] and we’ll submit your graduation application to the UW Registrar. This form also allows you to explain any irregularities in your plan and ask any questions you may have. After submitting the form, you can expect to receive a confirmation email from us (no action required) and a confirmation email from the UW Registrar. The email from the registrar will have action items for you, so please watch for it and complete the steps as soon as possible once you receive it.

Following this process ensures that you’ll receive Graduating Senior Priority Registration (GSP) for Winter 2023 (registration begins November 4) and Spring 2023 (registration begins February 10).

Please note: Degrees are not automatically awarded when all requirements are satisfied. Submitting this graduation application to the University of Washington is required as a final step to complete your degree. Additionally, this process is separate from attending UW Commencement and the CEE graduation celebration in June 2023 – attendance at those events is not a requirement to receive your degree, but rather a chance to celebrate your accomplishment (although we encourage you to go). More information about graduation events will be sent out later in the academic year.

 

The deadline to complete this google form is Friday, October 7, 2022, but the earlier you can submit it, the better.
