HMC
Applying for Graduation

Minimum of three graduation applications (one for graduation; one for your major; one for Humanities, Social Sciences, and the Arts) are required of all graduating seniors. Please read the following instructions before completing the applications. 

Major-Required Courses
List all completed major-required courses as well as those either in progress or planned for Spring 2013. Place IP (In Progress) in the grade column for courses that are current or planned for the spring. If a course has been approved for a substitution (study abroad, summer work, etc.), list the substitute course in the appropriate box and have your advisor initial beside it.

Obtain the signature(s) of your major advisor(s).

Indicate the way your name is to appear on your diploma. 

Double Majors
If you have a double major, a separate graduation application must be completed for each major. If one of your double majors is off-campus, an Off-campus Second Major Graduation Application must be completed.

Which Catalogue Should I Use?
It is the student’s responsibility to make certain that all degree requirements are satisfied. Students may elect to complete the graduation requirements stated in any HMC Catalogue in effect during their enrollment at HMC, but they may not mix provisions from various catalogues. It will be assumed that you are using the HMC 2009-2010 Catalogue (the catalogue in effect when you started at HMC) unless you indicate otherwise at the top of your graduation application.

Use the student portal to view your current degree audit.  The audit will show the completion of the core and major requirements.

Humanities, Social Sciences, and the Arts Applications
Obtain your HSA graduation application from your HSA advisor. Complete the application and have your HSA advisor review, update and sign the form. Be sure that the course numbers and titles on the application match the corresponding courses on your HMC transcript. If you did not complete a listed course, have the form updated and signed by your HSA advisor before submitting it to the Registrar’s Office.

When Are These Applications Due?
Return ALL graduation applications (Graduation Application, major and HSA ) to the Office of the Registrar following web-registration. The deadline for submitting your application for graduation in May 2013 is Monday, January 28, 2013. Applications received after this deadline will be interpreted as applications for the following semester, Fall 2013.
