Looking for the Application for Graduation?

If you are looking for the Application for Graduation (Fall 2011), it is not yet available. In conjunction with the new SIS, we will be unveiling a new Application for Graduation - Hooray! It is currently in the testing phase and is set to be available to students in the next week or two. Please check back around mid- to late-September. In the mean time, please do not file a paper application, as they will not be accepted nor processed. Your patience and understanding is appreciated.

Students Enrolled in Both Residential and Continuing Ed Courses

Students who are enrolled in a combination of residential and Continuing Education courses will have their bills adjusted as appropriate and necessary by Continuing and Distance Education to ensure that their tuition is at a full time rate and not above that.

Attention Seniors: Learn More About the Proficiency Profile

Graduating seniors are being asked to take an hour to help UNI gather evidence about learning related to general areas of skill gained from a university education. In return for that hour, seniors get a chance to win a Nook e-Reader, as well as earn free graduation apparel. Being eligible for the prizes involves completing a 40-minute test called Proficiency Profile, which is accessible online.

Attention Faculty and Staff: Schedule Change Requests Are Now Electronic

In an effort to be more environmentally friendly and efficient, our office has made the Schedule Change Request (formerly known as the "Pink Slip") into an electronic WebForm. This form is for departmental schedulers; they can use this form to make a change to one of the sections in the Schedule of Classes as appropriate and necessary. Please note, this form is NOT for students who are trying to make changes to their schedule. Please click here to navigate to the Schedule Change Requests main page.

Record Analyst Availability

Record Analysts are available to meet with students from 1:15-4:00 p.m. Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday. To ensure that everyone gets all of the assistance they need, no appointments will be taken. Instead, meetings are on a first-come, first-serve basis, so you may have to wait for a little while before speaking with your Record Analyst. If you are unable to meet during this block of time, please feel free to e-mail or call your Record Analyst with your questions, comments, or concerns. Thank you in advance for your understanding and patience!
