Graduation

After Applying for Graduation

If anything changes about your plans or your address, you must let the Advising Office know immediately.

If you have taken any loans out or received Financial Aid, you will want to call 292-0300 and set up and exit review to find out about any obligations and payments you may need to set up.

You will be placed on the graduating senior roster and that means you will get a certain amount of priority in scheduling your classes.

The quarter you graduate you will need to arrange with your teachers to submit final grades a week early. This means you will need to be done with all papers, final exams, performances, and exhibitions that are tied to class grades.

You will be able to find out specific information about graduation services for you and your family and guests at commencement.osu.edu

About two weeks before graduation, the College of the Arts Advising office will mail you a brochure that contains additional information, including your marching number. If you do not plan to attend it is very important to let the Advising office know.

Make sure to utilize Career Connections in the Younkin Success center to help you as you refine your career goals and put into action your plans. They are able to help you even one quarter after you graduate. Call 688-3898 for an appointment.

Arts and Sciences Career Services can also help you locate internships and tell you when companies are coming to campus to interview.
See career.asc.ohio-state.edu for more information about their resources.

Keep in contact with faculty about your plans and ask their advice. Now is a good time to ask for letters of recommendation. Make sure whomever you ask knows you really well and can speak of specific strengths and areas of accomplishment so that the letter is as positive and detailed as possible.
The Advising Office will see you at graduation services and line you up for marching order.
