Senior Checklist


Please print out this checklist for your own records and personal use.

Make an appointment with your faculty advisor to confirm completion of graduation requirements. Review your ARTS form to clarify remaining requirements, clear incompletes, and confirm that transfer and Independent Study course work is received. There are deadlines!
Check hours and Junior/Senior (300-600) hours to be sure you will meet minimum requirements.
If applicable, meet with your minor advisor to confirm minor requirements.
File your Application for Degree, available in 109 Strong Hall, Major Certification Sheet, Board of Regents Survey, and Minor Certification (if applicable). There are deadlines! You should plan to be ready to file in the term before you plan to graduate.
Complete your resume and cover letter to prepare for your job search. Visit University Career Center (UCC), 110 Burge Union, http://www.kucareerhawk.com to register for on-campus interviews. (Register early - most campus interviews are held in late fall and early spring) for help in researching careers and to schedule a mock interview in order to practice your interviewing skills.
