Prior to completing a Graduation Application, students should consult with their academic advisors, check their Degree Audits, and reference the appropriate Academic Catalog to make sure all graduation requirements will be met prior to the graduation date.

If you missed the deadline to apply online, but believe you are eligible to graduate during the current term of graduation, you will need to contact your academic advisor to obtain approval for your request and to ask that they then submit an email directly to graduation@uwf.edu on your behalf to request that you be added to the prospective graduation list as a late applicant. When you contact your department, you must provide them with the following information to forward to our office so that your graduation application can be created manually:

• Student ID number: (970......)

• Name (as you wish it to appear on your diploma):

• Term in which you wish to graduate:

• Major(s)/Minor(s) you are applying to graduate in:

• Address (to

• where the diploma should be mailed):

at graduation@uwf.edu.

Please include the following information:

• Student ID number: (970......)
• Name (as you wish it to appear on your diploma):
• Term in which you wish to graduate:
• Major(s)/Minor(s) you are applying to graduate in:
• Address (to mail diploma to):

If you are changing

your Diploma Name, be sure all spelling, punctuation, and capitalization is correct; this

is exactly

 how your name will appear on your diploma.
