Degree Completion (Graduation) Procedure
Purpose
To ensure that students successfully complete all program requirements and comply with Minnesota State Colleges and Universities and Riverland Community College guidelines.
Procedural Steps
Once a student has completed or is registered for all requirements listed on the degree audit and the degree audit states, "All Requirements Identified Below Have Been Met "or" All Requirements Completed - In Progress Courses Used", they can apply for graduation through Graduation Express.
At the end of the term, after all graduation applications are processed, an Associate Registrar will run a report to catch any student who did not apply for graduation but has completed all requirements to award their degree.
