TESU-Final Steps to Graduation. - dodek101 - 02-02-2021
In March Term I am taking BUS-421 and LIB-495 and I will be done.
What are my next steps?
I was wondering if I should plan ahead with the graduation requirements?
Office of Registrar final degree audit. Is there anything to worry about that?
Certified for Graduation?

You apply for graduation prior to the deadline. I'd probably apply for June graduation by April 1, worst that happens is that you don't make it and they push it to September.
I would just look at your latest eval to make sure you're not missing any courses, and it shows that you have 114cr and everything is in the correct place. If you have anything that looks wonky, now is the time to fix it. Make sure you send in anything pending (like courses you've completed but haven't sent yet).
They do a final audit when you're next in line for it, they'll email you when it's done and tell you if there are any issues. There's nothing for you to do otherwise.

Just make sure all of your credits are there in your academic eval, and make sure you know the deadline to apply for graduation.
With you starting your last courses in March, the earliest you can graduate is September, so you need to apply for graduation by July 1st.

If you are concerned, you could always request an advisor to call you, and ask him to check it over. Donald Stoltz seemed to really know what he was doing, and I think you are allowed to pick who to set up an appt. with. We did that early on because it seemed our plan was a little off, and sure enough it was. He said, it was better to catch it early on instead of right before you graduate. That was scary to me.
I'm just impressed you are taking both of these courses at the same time!

That's awesome, you've followed through with my recommendations and now it's the final two courses, great job! Just make sure to spend roughly 50/50 of your time on each course, unlike the Cornerstone/Capstone combo which I tell people to spend 20/80. Main thing to remember is time management and to complete the assignments before the deadlines posted on the calendar...
