    Filing for Candidacy
    The semester prior to the semester a student wishes to graduate, a request should be made at the College of Letters & Science, ll3 Campbell Hall, for a Degree Check/Audit to insure that all requirements for the degree will be satisfied. Students should indicate their intention to graduate by responding to the Tele-BEARS inquiry when scheduling courses for the semester they plan to graduate. Please keep in mind that the College will only review overall degree requirements; please be sure to verify with the Psychology Undergraduate Advisors that all major requirements have been fulfilled.

    Commencement Ceremony
    The Department of Psychology's Commencement ceremony occurs once each year in May (a general L&S ceremony also takes place in the fall). All students graduating in fall, spring, or summer are eligible to participate. Summer and fall graduates should inform the Student Services Office of their intention to graduate and participate in the ceremony no later than the end of March. Graduating seniors may be asked to participate in the planning of the ceremony. Junior majors are encouraged to attend as guests or volunteers so that they will have an opportunity to develop ideas and plans for their own graduation the following year.
