Doctoral Students Depositing This Summer
Doctoral students, do you plan to deposit your dissertation this summer?
Please note that the next master's deposit deadline is Friday, July 25. The Graduate College Thesis Office anticipates that the weeks of July 14 and July 21 will be extremely busy with master's thesis format reviews. Doctoral students who intend to visit the Thesis Office during these two weeks should be prepared for a significant wait in line, as priority will be given to master's students needing to deposit for August graduation.
