How do I apply to graduate?

You must apply to graduate through UWinsite Student whether or not you plan to attend a Convocation ceremony. If you do not apply to graduate, you will not receive your diploma or degree notation on your final transcript.

The application to graduate in UWinsite Student will generally open in early December for Spring Convocation and around July 15 for Fall Convocation.
