In your graduation application, between applying and your graduation day, you will notice changes in your application. Below is a list of terms you may see on your application and what they mean:
Applied for Graduation
Your application has been received. Applications will be reviewed once the graduation application closes. Please ensure that all requirements are met by the deadline for graduation.
Pending
Your application will remain pending until all final grades are in, and your file has been approved by the Dean of your faculty.
Graduation Not Approved
Your application for graduation has not been approved by your faculty/school. Contact your faculty/school if you believe that you have met graduation requirements and should be eligible to graduate. Otherwise, you will need to re-apply for graduation in a subsequent session when you become eligible to graduate.
Withdrawn Application
Your application has been withdrawn and will not be evaluated for graduation. You must re-apply for a subsequent session.
Approved
Your file is complete, and your application has been approved by the Dean of your faculty. Your credential will not appear on your transcript until Senate meets to approve all graduates and confer their degrees.
Conferred
Your degree has been conferred (awarded) by senate and your credentials will appear on your transcript. Senate usually confers degrees during its regular monthly meeting about a week before graduation ceremonies.
