Once approved by the department the form will be submitted to the GSO for completion processing.
2) Receipt of this completed form (in the GSO) by the deadline indicated above, acknowledges a student's intention to graduate and completion of all degree requirements (for programs with a thesis, completion includes submission and approval from the GSO of the thesis in UWSpace).

Full Convocation information is available through the Registrar's Office website.
