In addition to completing the online application, you will need to meet with your major advisor to have the Major Certification Sheet (MCS) and your minor advisor (if applicable) to have the Minor Certification Sheet completed and signed. Please bring the completed Certification Sheet(s) to CLA&S Student Academic Services in 109 Strong Hall. Please allow enough time when planning to complete your paperwork so that you are able to accomplish the above steps and return the completed forms to 109 Strong no later than July 15, 2008 to meet the final deadline.
