Graduation

Graduation Requirements

Graduation requirements for each degree and certificate program are outlined in the Degree & Certificate sections of the Aims catalog. The catalog that is current at the time you begin a program will be used to establish graduation requirements. If you do not maintain continuous enrollment, you lose the right to use the original catalog requirements and must use the catalog in force at the time you return.

In addition to successfully completing all course and credit requirements for your Aims certificate or degree, you must submit an Application for Graduation in order for your certificate or degree to be officially recognized and recorded on your Aims Transcript.

Apply for Graduation

Graduation applications must be submitted to the Admissions & Records Office in Greeley by the published deadline for the term of graduation. With the exception of Fall graduation, the deadline for submitting a Graduation Application is typically the end of the first week of Returning Student Registration for the term of graduation. Students graduating Fall term have until the end of mid-term week of Summer Semester to submit the application.
