Hey Everyone,

Have you passed your FE Exam? Are you a graduating senior this June? If so, you are eligible to receive a FE Exam honor cord from NCEES!

What to do on your end:

  1. Click this link > Under FAQ, click “Can I still recieve a cord if I didn’t opt in during the exam registration process” > “My NCEES Account” > “Opt In”

I’ve reached out to NCEES and was notified that they are planning on preparing and shipping out the honor cords THIS WEDNESDAY, thus please opt in by TOMORROW TUESDAY 3:00pm. From my understanding the cords will be sent to UW’s NCEES contact, Dan Ratner, and he will reach out to us with information to collect the cords.

CEE Seniors – Apply to Graduate!

Hello CEE Seniors,

If you plan to complete your BSCE or BSENVE degree in Autumn 2023, Winter 2024, Spring 2024, or Summer 2024, it is time to apply to graduate! Here are the steps we need you to complete:

  1. Run a fresh degree audit (DARS) and carefully review your remaining requirements – make sure you account for each one. In your final quarter, your DARS must show that all requirements are either completed or in progress.
  2. Update your MyPlan so that it reflects your plan for completing your degree. If you’re unsure of the exact courses you’ll take, it’s okay to use placeholder classes as shown on the sample 4-year plan on the BSCE/BSENVE degree sheets. If you’ve taken courses outside of UW that you plan to use toward your degree, please be sure that your most recent official transcript has been sent to the UW Admissions Office.
  3. After reviewing your DARS and MyPlan, complete this google form and we will submit an online graduation application to the UW Registrar on your behalf. The form will provide a place for you to ask questions or point out any concerns you may have. CEE Graduation Application – This form is for current BSCE and BSENVE seniors who anticipate graduating between Autumn 2023 and Summer 2024 to initiate the graduation application process. Once you complete this form, we will submit the online graduation application on your behalf. If you have questions, please email ceadvice@uw.edu. This form will take about 10 minutes to complete and will ask you to update your MyPlan and run a Degree Audit.
  4. Completing this process in a timely manner ensures that you will obtain Graduating Senior Priority Registration for Winter Quarter (November 3, 2023) and Spring Quarter (February 9, 2024). The deadline to complete the google form is Friday, October 13th, but the earlier you can submit it, the better!
