Graduation Policies
While Taylor University publishes program information and materials to assist students in planning their academic programs, students are solely responsible for ensuring that their course selections fulfill all academic program requirements and comply with the policies and procedures of the University. Students are expected to understand that although evaluations of their academic records will be conducted by the Office of the Registrar, that students will be notified of outstanding requirements and deficiencies in their plans, and that their applications for graduation require the signatures of advisors, students are solely responsible for ensuring that all degree requirements are met for graduation from Taylor University.
The Office of the Registrar will complete two degree evaluations on behalf of the student: the first evaluation will be completed in the term following the application deadline; the second will be completed in the last semester of enrollment after the last day to add a class. If deficiencies are discovered, the student will be removed as a candidate for completion and participation in Commencement; it is the student's responsibility to notify his or her family of the change. If a new definitive plan is submitted addressing the deficiencies, the student may be reinstated as a candidate.
