Questions regarding your progress toward a specific credential should be directed to your academic advisor. It is your responsibility to meet with your academic advisor to ensure you're on track to graduate. All applicable supporting documentation for your credential (e.g. course exceptions, OJT hours, standardized credit, etc.) must be submitted to the Office of the Registrar by the last day of the semester in which you are applying to graduate.

BridgeValley's annual Commencement is held each May. Commencement celebrates graduates from the previous summer and fall graduating classes as well as spring graduation candidates for the semester coinciding with the ceremony. If you graduated in the summer or fall semester immediately preceding Commencement, you do not need to submit a spring graduation application to participate in the ceremony.
