Step-by-Step Degree Completion

Step #1: Submit GPAS (Graduate Progress and Audit System) to your M.Ed. adviser for approval

  • Submit all requests for transfer credits via email to your M.Ed. adviser as early as possible. Make sure you attach the course syllabus for the course that you request for transfer.
  • Submit all GPAS exceptions requests (instructions) in your GPAS for your degree requirements.
  • GPAS should be submitted in the first month of your last semester of coursework.  (Step-by-step instructions on how to submit your GPAS for approval)

Step #2: Complete the Application for Degree in MyU

  • Do this before the 1st of the month you wish to graduate.
  • MyU>Academics tab>Degree Progress> Click on "Apply to Graduate" link

Important! Maintain continuous enrollment - register for GRAD 999: If you've already completed your coursework and the term has ended, you'll need to request to register for GRAD 999 (by filling out the form linked above) in order to keep your enrollment active as the University can only clear a degree in an active student status. Please note that students can use a GRAD 999 registration up to two times.

Note: Directions on the Graduate School's website for M.Ed. degree completion refer to submitting a GPAS Planner, however, School of Kinesiology does not use that tool. The process outlined above is what you should refer to when planning to graduate.
