Undergraduate Associate and Bachelor Degree

The Registrar Office will review student's degree conferral status when the student is nearing the completion of their undergraduate associate degree or bachelor degree academics requirements.  For most Bachelor Degree students, this will be when the student enrolls in their Capstone course; which by design is meant to be taken as the last or next to last course.  If the student's bachelor degree program does not have a Capstone course, and for all undergraduate associate degree students, this will be a comparable course that is the last or next to last course. 

A mandatory, non-refundable Final Academic Requirements Evaluation Fee will be assessed to all Bachelor Degree students when they enroll in their Capstone course, or if a Capstone course does not exist, the comparable last or next to last course.  The Fee is not assessed for Undergraduate Associate Degree students.

Degrees are conferred only after evaluation and approval by the Registrar’s Office. The following general requirements must be met in order to be evaluated by the Registrar's Office:

1. Complete at least 90 quarter credit hours of course work for an associate’s degree and 180 quarter credit hours of course work for a bachelor’s degrees with a minimum cumulative grade point average of 2.0.
