You must APPLY to graduate

You should pick up your application for graduation from your college academic advising office early in your last semester.

Deliver the completed application for graduation to the Office of Academic Records (Buchanan Hall, Room 330, 1000 Asp, Norman, OK 73019) before the deadlines:

Note: There is no graduation fee except for Advanced Program students who are required to pay a graduation fee of $25.00 if receiving a master's degree; $27.50 if receiving a dual master's degree and $30.00 if receiving a doctoral degree. Doctoral candidates no longer pay a microfilming fee to the University. To publish your dissertation/thesis at The University of Oklahoma, visit http://dissertations.umi.com/ou/.

Review the information on graduation in the OU General Catalog and Degree Navigator carefully. There are a variety of general education, residency, and grade point average requirements that you must fulfill in order to graduate. Remember that the responsibility for meeting graduation requirements lies with the student. Degrees and diplomas will be conferred upon only those students who have paid all tuition and fees.

The application it is good for a maximum of three consecutive academic terms should degree requirements not be met. If a student has not been cleared to graduate after three consecutive academic terms, a new application will need to be submitted.
