Graduation Checklist

1. Have I completed a minimum of 123 credits?

    (Note 1: Lower-division AERO and MLSC courses, activity courses in LEIS and PE, and MGMT 3013 cannot be counted toward the 123-credit requirement.)

    (Note 2: Your online course completion record will eventually identify the courses you have completed (with the grade) as well as identify the number of hours you have completed that count toward graduation. Once this feature is active, you will be able to determine the number of hours completed by looking in the middle column beside the heading "Hours for Graduation." However, only the "template" is available at this time. Until your course completion record is available online, you are urged to maintain your own record using these directions .)

2. Have I completed 62 hours outside the William S. Spears School of Business (SSB)?

    To calculate the number of hours you have completed outside the Spears School of Business, total the number of hours of non-SSB-prefix courses you have completed. (Note: Except for MSIS 2103 and up to 9 hours of ECON courses, no other courses with ACCT, BADM, BCOM, FIN, LSB, MGMT, MSIS, or MKTG prefixes can be included as part of the hours counted as being outside the SSB.)

    To determine what GPA you are required to have, check your degree requirement sheet.
