Graduation
Students who expect to complete degree requirements during the summer session must advise the Registrar’s Office (Application for BA/BS degree required).
The official date for granting degrees in Summer 2025 is Aug. 1.
To qualify for August graduation, all courses must be completed, and in the case of transfer credit, transcripts must be received by Aug. 14. Formal graduation exercises are not held in August. Candidates may participate and be recognized in graduation exercises on May 15-16, 2025. Students whose programs are completed after Aug. 8, 2025, will be included as candidates for graduation in January 2026.
Grades and Transcripts
Grade reports for each term are available to students online on the Wednesday following the end of the term.
Academic Record transcripts reflecting the preceding term are usually unavailable until the Friday following the end of the term. Courses with ending dates before the last day of a term are graded with the “normal” courses for that term. Transcripts for graduating students with degrees conferred will be available a week after the full summer term ends.
Students who wish to have transcripts sent elsewhere should make such requests in the registrar’s office at least two weeks before they need them. Learn more about requesting a transcript.
University Regulations
All general regulations of the University governing conduct on the campus and all academic rules and requirements concerning class attendance, grades and credits, examinations, and scholarships are in full effect for the summer program. The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974 provides for the confidentiality of students’ educational records. For specific information, consult the undergraduate or graduate catalogs and The Hornet student handbook.
Honor System
All enrolled students are bound to honor high standards of conduct and to maintain the spirit of honor and integrity. The Honor Code (see The Hornet student handbook) is in effect during the summer session, with the usual sanction for a violation, such as suspension from the university. Any student who observes a possible violation is expected to contact the professor or University Experience and Student Success.
