Finishing Up

The semester before you expect to graduate, meet with a BIS/IDIM adviser to confirm the courses you have left for your program. You should also meet with your CLA adviser to confirm that you have met all the degree requirements (it is your CLA advising community that clears you for your degree, not the BIS/IDIM office) and to submit your degree application.

Submit your Analytic Paper or Senior Project paperwork to the BIS/IDIM office no later than two weeks after the last class day of the term you intend to graduate (see the BIS/IDIM office for the exact date for that term).

Complete the last courses in your program with grades of C- or better.

Once you have completed the Analytic Paper or Senior Project requirement and are enrolled in the final course(s) in your BIS or IDIM program, the BIS/IDIM office will send your BIS/IDIM final clearance to your CLA advising community. At the end of the term, your CLA student advising community will verify that you have satisfied all CLA requirements (e.g., liberal education, second language and credit requirements) and have earned a C- or better in your BIS/IDIM courses before sending a final graduation confirmation to the Registrar's office.
