November Degree Applications Are Open!

- Students can apply until Aug. 1, 11:59pm EST
Dear GSAS Department Colleagues,

We are writing to share that November degree applications are now open. Please reach out to your November degree candidates to ensure they are aware of the deadline and how to apply.

You can review your November degree candidates' application statuses using the Students by Expected Grad Term query found on your GSAS Department Workcenter Navigations tab. Here are some helpful notes.
  • Use 2248 as the term code for November 2024 degrees.
  • If the query does not return any students, you do not have November candidates. The number of students can change during the application period if students with later expected graduation terms apply for November degrees.
Your degree candidates will not appear in GSAS Graduation Tracker until after the deadline. Please use the reports in your WorkCenter to track their applications.

HELP CENTER
Please direct your students to the links above to assist them in the application process.
 

Will my student get confirmation of their degree and diploma information?


Yes, each degree candidate will receive an email in September noting their applied degrees, diploma name, and FERPA status.
 

How to Audit Your Master's in Passing


Our office added a few queries to help you track your master's in passing students. These queries have been added to your GSAS Department Workcenter. Please reach out if you have questions or would like additional or different information.

Students must create and apply (two steps) their master's in passing - adding the AM in Passing does not automatically submit a degree application.

Active PHDs with Master’s - candidates who have master’s in any status (whether already awarded or recently activated). It includes the graduation status (eligible or applied) for both the PhD and the master’s along with the expected graduation term for each.

Applied PhDs with Master’s - candidates who have applied for the current degree term and who also have master’s in any status. This can be used to ensure that your applied PhD candidates also apply for their master’s.  We reach out directly to that population.

Active Master’s in Passing - This query identifies active PhD candidates with active master’s in passing which have not been awarded. The degree checkout status for the master’s identifies if it has been applied or is still eligible to apply.

Students who do not apply by the deadline will have their expected graduation terms bumped to May 2025.
