ETD Process Requirements

Registrations

Be sure to complete all of the required registrations:

  • ETD Process Registration (required) 
  • Graduation (required)
  • Commencement (optional)

ETD Process Registration

 opens the first day of each semester!

Instructions:

  1. : Login to the system using your 国产短视频credentials.
  2. Select the "Submit ETD Registration猸�" option to access the registration form.

    Note: If you do not see this option under "My Actions" then you may need to scroll down.      Contact: help@usf.edu if you do not have the "Submit ETD Registration猸�" option available.
The ETD Process Registration:
  • verifies that you are registered for at least two (2) credits of thesis/dissertation hours
  • captures information needed to complete the process
  • captures information used in the 国产短视频Commencement Program
  • notifies the ETD Team that you plan to submit your ETD this semester

Students have previously had issues completing this step on the deadline, only to discover that they are not registered for thesis/dissertation hours or are registered in the incorrect section. Because enrollment in at least two (2) credits of thesis/dissertation hours is mandatory, in order for the Office of the Registrar to change the grade, it's essential to have that corrected by the deadline. It can take several days to accomplish changes, so it's best to be proactive and complete this registration process early.

The ETD Process Registration is also used to gather the information printed in the Commencement program, which needs to be formatted and proofed in order for the booklets printed in time for the ceremony. To ensure you are listed, complete the ETD Process Registration as early in the semester as possible. 

Application to Graduate

(Office of the Registrar)

Submit the Online Graduation Application through Student Self-Service (formerly OASIS), prior to the deadline for that semester. You will also complete a Graduate Exit Survey as part of the Graduation Application. This replaces the old exit survey and our office can verify completion in Student Self-Service, a print out of this exit survey is not needed.

Check with your department to see if they have earlier/additional submission deadlines. 

The Graduation Application is handled by the Office of the Registrar, so if you have additional questions about it, reach out to them at (813) 974-5924. You must complete the Application to Graduate in order to graduate/complete your degree.

NOTE: If you are submitting your ETD in the current semester, but not planning to graduate in the same semester, you do not need to complete this step.

Commencement Registration

(Commencement Office)

To register for Commencement, or for additional information on Commencement, please visit the Commencement website. Attendance is optional, but you must register for Commencement in order to participate.

NOTE: If you are submitting your ETD in the current semester, but not planning to graduate in the same semester, you do not need to complete this step.
