Graduate Graduation Policy

Body

Graduation

In order to be awarded the graduate degree or certificate, students must complete an Application to Graduate at the time they register for their last courses/credits. The application can be found on my.css “graduation application.”

Commencement

One commencement ceremony is held each academic year in May. To participate, the application to graduate must be completed by the published deadline. Graduate students generally participate in commencement in the Spring commencement ceremony following completion of all degree requirements. In those programs (or tracks) where the final requirement is an off-site internship/field placement, e.g. occupational therapy, students who are making normal progress toward their degree may participate in the ceremony prior to completing the final requirement.

Students in other programs or tracks who have special circumstances may participate in commencement with the permission of the Graduate Program Director and their School Dean. Participation in the ceremony does not confer the degree. The degree is conferred when all requirements have been completed and appear on the official transcript.
