April 6, April 13, and April 20 are Important Upcoming Academic Deadlines

Friday, April 13 is the last day to drop individual full term Spring semester courses without a grade of W. Students need to come to the Graduate College, 204 Coble Hall, to complete a Late Course Change form to complete the process, but first are encouraged to discuss their decision with their adviser and/or program. Dropping a course may affect progress toward degree completion, so the decision is best done in consultation with a student’s program.

Friday, April 13 is the last day to change a course to a Credit/No-Credit Option for the Spring semester.

Thesis and Dissertation Deposit Students planning to deposit theses or dissertations for May 2018 graduation are reminded of the following deadlines:

April 6:  Last day to complete a thesis defense for a May 2018 graduation

April 20: Last day to complete a doctoral dissertation deposit for a May 2018 graduation

Because all corrections and all required deposit materials must be received by the Graduate College no later than 5 p.m. on the day of the deposit deadline, the Thesis Office strongly encourages students to submit the thesis for review several days before the deadline. For further information about the deposit process and links to downloadable deposit checklists, visit the Thesis Office web page.
