Student Forms

Undergraduate students must reach at least 90 Earned Credit Hours. Earned Credit Hours only include courses you have passed and received a grade for and transfer credit. Graduate students must reach at least 15 Earned Credit Hours. Typically, students apply one full semester prior to graduation. Spring and summer graduates would apply in the fall semester.

A double major is when a student completes two majors with the same degree type and completes at least 120 credits. For example, both Sociology and Anthropology are a Bachelor of Arts degree. Therefore, the student will receive one diploma and only needs to apply for gradation once. A dual degree is when a student completes two majors in different degree programs and completes at least 150 credits. For example, Biology is a Bachelor of Science degree and Psychology is a Bachelor of Arts degree. Therefore, the student will receive two diplomas and needs to apply twice, once for each degree.

No, both majors/degrees must be completed simultaneously in order to graduate. You may drop the incomplete major by submitting a change of major form in IC Workflow.
