Fall 2025 Graduation

If you plan to graduate after the Fall semester, you must complete your graduation application by November 6th. This goes for both undergraduates and graduate (MS) students.

• Your first step: Contact your academic advisor and request that they lift your graduation hold. If you have trouble reaching your academic advisor, please contact me.<
• Once the hold is removed: You can access and complete the application in Self-Service.
• Please note: If you are planning to graduate after the Spring 2026 semester (May 2026), this is not relevant to you – you will apply for graduation next semester.

Registration – Winter and Spring 2026

Registration for both the Winter 2026 and Spring 2026 semesters has begun. If you have not registered for your Spring 2026 classes yet please do so immediately. The College modifies course offerings based on enrollment – over enrolled and under enrolled courses necessitate changes, and delaying your registration reduces our ability to make those adjustments for you.

Please note that there are two courses being offered relevant to your majors this Winter – CMPS 130 and CMPS 147. CMPS 130 is a required course in Data Science, CMPS 147 is a required course in Computer Science and Cybersecurity. Both courses are also electives in Bioinformatics and may substitute for some mathematics requirements. If you have questions about the Winter session, please email me.

4+1 MSDS / MSCS / MSAM Seniors

If you are graduating at the end of Spring 2026 or Fall 2026, and you are in a 4+1 in MSDS, MSCS, MSAM – you should be planning to take a few graduate courses in Spring 2026. If you aren’t sure which ones to take, you should be setting up a time to meet with me! Registration for graduate courses as an undergraduate requires an override (even if you are in the 4+1). Email me to get the override for registration!
