Graduation

Apply for graduation

The semester prior to your graduation, meet with your Academic Advisor to complete a graduation check-in, and confirm your remaining courses and grades needed to meet graduation requirements.

Find application instructions and important dates posted by the Graduation team in the Registrar’s Office. Learn about commencement ceremonies here.  

 

Who receives advising?

All UNT students must meet with their advisor and receive their advising code before they can register for classes.

Who is my advisor?

Each student is assigned an advisor based upon their major. Find your advisor below.

Do I need to make an appointment to see my advisor?
Yes, it is best to schedule an appointment with your primary advisor via appointments.unt.edu. We recommend scheduling your advising appointments early. Do not wait until the week before classes begin or once registration has opened to see an advisor. Some classes close quickly, and meeting with your advisor can help prevent delays to a timely graduation.
What should I expect at my advising appointment?
Academic advising is more than just creating a schedule of classes. Members of our advising team can help you choose a major, weigh different class options and connect you with campus resources. You can discuss your educational and career goals with your advisor and ask any questions you may have. Advisors help you make the most of your UNT experience.
Where do I find information about UNT or HPS requirements, resources and dates?
What is the University Core Curriculum?
UNT has a set of core classes that all students must fulfill to graduate. Find details on the UNT Advising website or the UNT Catalog.
How do I declare a major/degree?
If you need to declare a major or change your major, please schedule an appointment with one of our advisors or the primary advisor for your major.
How do I drop a class?

Before dropping a class, we strongly recommend that you check in with your professor and/or your academic advisor. You can obtain the Instructor Approval to Drop form from the Registrar’s Office, the Academic Advising office, or the academic department office.

The form must be signed by the professor of the class then returned to the Registrar’s Office before the due date for final processing. If you are taking all classes via Online format, you can communicate either by email or phone with your instructor/department and academic advisor to ensure the class is dropped before the drop date.

Where can I go to get a transcript?

You may request an official or unofficial copy of your UNT transcript from the Registrar’s Office located in the Eagle Student Services Building.

How do I apply for graduation?

The semester prior to your graduation, meet with an academic advisor to complete a Graduation Check. At this appointment, you will confirm your remaining courses and grades needed to meet graduation requirements.

Seniors will receive an email from the Graduation Records Office containing information about applying for graduation and specific due dates.

When your application has been approved for final processing by the Registrar’s Office, you will receive a confirmation letter from the Graduation Records Office.

After you have satisfied all degree requirements, you will receive your diploma via postal mail approximately 6-8 weeks after the end of the semester or term.

Graduation ceremonies are held twice a year: May and December.

Learn more about graduation at Registrar's Office Apply to Graduate page and on the Registrar’s website.
