Students completing degree requirements during the spring semester are expected to participate in hooding and commencement exercises. Students will take the Oath of a Pharmacist at the hooding ceremony. Anticipated graduates are candidates who meet all academic requirements within two courses (maximum 8 hours). These students take their expected place in the commencement line-up with all other candidates and walk across the stage to shake hands with the president and dean. A symbol in the commencement program identifies them as anticipated graduates. They will not receive a diploma and no honors are conferred at that time.
Students who have completed the requirements of the Degree Plus Pre-Pharmacy Program for either a BS in Chemistry or a BS in Biology should also complete the Graduation Application for the College of Arts and Sciences which is available from the Registrar’s webpage at
