Registration

ALL Graduate School students are required to register in the Graduate School every fall and spring term until they graduate in order to maintain active status.

Maintaining active status is required in order to participate in the University community as a Graduate School student. Participating in the University community includes registering for coursework, taking examinations, submitting milestone forms, and filing for graduation. Students not registered every fall and spring term are considered to have withdrawn; their Graduate School records are deactivated. Those who wish to resume graduate work must reapply and be readmitted to reactivate their status.

Information about maintaining active status and special registration categories for graduate and professional students is available at OneStop.
