Do I need to apply for graduation?

Yes, students are not automatically awarded their certificate or diploma.  Upon registering for the last semester of courses students should log onto Self-Service and apply for graduation.  This is required in order to officially graduate from the programs.  This needs to be completed if the student does not plan on participating in the graduation ceremony.
