Applying for Graduation
If you intend on completing your degree requirements in spring quarter--even if your are not 100% sure, you need to apply for graduation with the UW Graduate School by May 13. It is easier to withdraw your graduation request later, than it is to add a graduation request.

Dean Jiambalvo and members of the committee would like to meet with MBA Students to discuss this plan and receive your input and thoughts. Interested students can meet with members of the Transformational Committee on May 3 at 5:00pm in the Seminar Room in BAEEC.
