XIII. Undergraduate Degrees

A. General

  1. To be considered for admission to candidacy for a degree, a student must have passed the Regents' Test and must make a formal petition for the degree during the term preceding the final term in residence. A petition for degree will not be accepted until the Regents' Test has been passed.
  2. Students desiring to withdraw their name from the rolls of degree candidates must formally withdraw the petition for degree before the end of the seventh week of the semester (or fourth week of the summer term). This privilege will be extended to a degree candidate only once.
  3. A degree program may include a maximum of four hours of basic ROTC and a maximum of six hours of advanced ROTC.
  4. The diploma of a candidate for a degree shall bear the date of the commencement at which the degree is awarded.
  5. All requirements for the degree must be completed and certified by the registrar no later than forty-eight hours after final grades for the term are due. If a candidate for a degree is not certified by the appropriate deadline, the candidate will be graduated at the next scheduled commencement. The diploma will bear the date of the commencement at which the degree is awarded. It is the responsibility of the student to reactivate the degree petition for the appropriate term.
