Undergraduate students who will be graduating as of May 2021 and who have not yet filed online to graduate should do so as soon as possible.
Undergraduates who will complete requirements in the Spring 2021 semester should file NO LATER THAN Thursday, Oct. 1, 2020. Students completing requirements in summer 2021 should file as August graduates, but are still able to participate in May Commencement (no matter how many credits they are taking in summer). August graduates have until Feb. 1, 2021 to apply online for graduation.
To apply for graduation online, students must do the following:
- Access their MyOswego account
- Sign in and select the Student Records link. From the registration link select “Apply to graduate.” Before you can apply for graduation, you will need to select the Curriculum term (usually current term), and then follow the prompts for applying for the correct (future) graduation term. Please note, if you are unable to apply online for graduation, contact the Graduation Area of the Registrar’s Office, registra@oswego.edu, for help in doing so.
- Once a student has applied to graduate, undergraduate students must meet with their advisor for each of their major(s) and minor(s) and complete a senior check form to be submitted to the Registrar's Graduation Area, 301C Culkin Hall, by the appropriate deadline. The senior check form is mandatory for graduation.
Senior check forms for students graduating in May should only be completed after a student has applied for graduation, and are due back to the Registrar’s Office no later than Dec. 1, 2020. Senior check forms can only be accepted by the Registrar’s Office AFTER a student has applied for graduation. Senior check forms for students graduating in August 2021 are due no later than April 1, 2021. Senior check forms are mandatory for graduation for undergraduate students of all majors/minors and College Honors Program.
