Associate of Arts Degree applicants need not complete a graduation survey.

You may submit a late graduation application until the last day of classes of the term you plan to graduate. If the current term is not available, apply for the upcoming term and request a backdate from your academic advisor. 

If you complete the graduation survey and apply after the priority deadline, your name will not be included in the Commencement brochure.

Applying late may require your application to be moved to the following term, even if all degree requirements are met. 

• Provide official transcripts of all transferred course work needed for graduation at least one term prior to your last term.
  
  
• Notify your college of any change or error in your current schedule, including any adds, drops or withdrawals.
  
  
• Contact registrarupdates@usf.edu if your name does not appear on a class roster.
  
  
• Resolve all "I" - incomplete grades
  
  
• Resolve all "M"- missing grades
  
  
• A financial obligation to the University of South Florida will result in a hold placed on your student record. Ensure that all outstanding fees and balances are paid in full. 
  A hold will be placed on your student record, as fees. This will prevent the release of your diploma and transcript. It is your responsibility to contact graduation@usf.edu immediately AFTER the last hold is lifted that is preventing the release of your diploma.
  
  
• Complete all exit interviews for Federal Regulated and Stafford Loans with the Office of Financial Aid.

Students applying for a second bachelor's degree from USF must earn a minimum of 30 upper-level semester hours in undergraduate courses to be applied to a second degree. These hours are in addition to the minimum number of required program hours you earned toward your first degree.

Eligible students wishing to apply the grade forgiveness policy to a course may do so at any time during their undergraduate enrollment. Once students have been awarded a bachelor’s degree from USF, they may no longer request to have grade forgiveness applied. A student is also not allowed to submit a grade forgiveness after the bachelor’s degree has been awarded. The policy applies only to courses taken originally at USF and repeated at USF. Courses transferred from other institutions are excluded from this policy.

Please contact your advising team in your college/major to discuss the circumstances.
