Graduation
Notifying the University of Intent to Graduate
All students are required to notify the University of their intended graduation term to ensure that all requirements have been met.
Undergraduate Students
Students applying to graduate must complete an intent-to-graduate form with the Registrar's Degree Office, (970) 491-7159, no later than the third week of the term prior to the graduating term. By the first week of their graduation term, students must sign a contract for graduation. Be sure to indicate that you are graduating from a CSU OnlinePlus program.
More information is available through the Registrar's Office.
Graduate Students
Students applying for the first time to graduate must complete the Application for Graduation (GS Form 25) and submit it to the Graduate School. Students who applied to graduate in a previous term, and did not graduate, are required to file a Reapplication for Graduation and register for Continuous Registration.
Further information about graduation deadline dates and forms is available at the Graduate School.
Commencement Ceremonies
Students graduating from degree programs offered through OnlinePlus are welcome and encouraged to walk in the on-campus graduation ceremony.
