Check your DegreeWorks Degree Audit
Follow these 5 STEPS TO GRADUATION
1. Meet with Your Advisor
Together, you and your advisor will run your electronic degree audit through DegreeWorks and check your progress toward your degree.
Online Students: Students in the online degree programs offered through Oregon Tech's Online Department should contact online@oit.edu two terms before graduation for correct applications.
2. Submit an Application for Degree
Submit the Application for Degree at least two terms prior to your anticipated degree completion term. There is a $56.00 fee that will be put on your student account when you apply to graduate. Your records will be reviewed by the Graduation Analyst in the Registrar's Office and you will be notified if additional courses/course substitutions/transcripts are needed in order for you to graduate.
*If you have not turned in your Application for Degree by May 1, 2019, your name WILL NOT appear in the Commencement program.
3. Register for Commencement
If you would like to participate in commencement in Klamath Falls, please email Lisa Shoults. Visit the commencement site for details about the ceremony dates, times, locations, regalia, etc. Whether you participate in commencement or not the Registrar's Office will mail your diploma to you, so please ensure you have updated your Diploma Mailing address with the Registrar’s Office.
4. Complete an Exit Interview & Clear Your Holds
All graduating seniors who have loans must participate in an Exit Interview in order to graduate.
Students should check their account for holds before graduation. Those who have holds placed on their accounts will not be given their diplomas (review the diploma release policy). Holds can result from very small charges, such as library fines or medicinal charges at the Student Health Center. Students can ensure that their accounts are free of holds at the Cashier's Office in Snell Hall or on Web for Student.
5. Complete Degree Requirements
Review your DegreeWorks audit to verify all degree requirements are met. Requirements for Associate, Bachelor, and Master degrees at Oregon Institute of Technology are determined by, and vary with, academic departments. Curricular requirements for each degree can be found in the catalog under each department.
Students completing Master degrees must complete their Project or Thesis and have their Final Approval Form signed and submitted to the Registrar's Office before they can graduate.
