Graduation Requirements and Degree Audits

During advising for your last term, your College Advisor will provide you with a check sheet listing your remaining requirements. This will assist you in registering for the correct courses to complete your degree requirements. A degree audit is also available through PAWS.

NOTE: If you received transient approval during your graduating term, you need to request an official transcript be sent to the 麻豆传媒, Registrar's Office, 390 Student Center Circle, Suite 1100, Meisler Hall, Mobile, AL 36688. Failure to send the transcript will adversely affect completion of your degree requirements.

If you make any changes to your program of study after applying for graduation, you will need to complete a Change of Program Form in your department. The department will then forward this change to the Registrar's Office and adjustments to your application will be made. You may receive a new check sheet from your college.
