• Make sure you have submitted all transcripts and double check that we’ve received them.
• Don’t assume a course transferred just because you took it – WSU is picky about what courses transfer!

Graduating:

• Meet with your advisor once per semester to make sure you’re on the right track for graduation.
  • Know and understand the requirements for your degree and graduation.
  • Complete the requirements for your major.
  • Make sure you have at least 40 hours of upper division credit.
  • Complete at least 120 credits total
• Ask your advisor questions regarding requirements, etc.
• Familiarize yourself with your degree audit and check it regularly.
• Individual requirements turn black when complete, and stay red when incomplete.
• Apply to graduate when you have reached 75 credits.
• Attend class, work hard on your class work and exams, and talk to the professor when things are confusing or overwhelming!
  • Failing or taking an incomplete will only cause you to fall behind.
• To shorten your time to graduation take more classes per semester and/or summer school.

Your Advisor:

• Does: help you to understand the requirements and helps you devise a plan of study.
• Doesn’t: tell you what to do.  She only makes suggestions.

In the end you are responsible for completing the requirements according to WSU policies so that you graduate.
